Decided to clean the barrels on my rims. And holy shit, I let it go too far I think. I got them down to mostly silver looking. Quite a few bastard spots, like behind spokes, where the old wheel weights were, and some really caked on shit. Killed a bottle of Sonax Full Effect going after each wheel 4 times. Ordered a 5L jug from my friend.

I have a question, how the hell do I get the sticky shit off from the old wheel weights? Is there something that will eat it up and not damage the rim.

Also, I have a wheel brush, got it from detailer domain, its blue and has sorta soft bristles. Either my rims are soo gunked up, or that brush is too soft for those areas, is there anything stiffer you guys have used to get at those spots?

And finally, what do you use to get behind the spokes, right now, those areas, on almost all of my rims are black?
