Rather new to this forum and have learned a lot of great info from all of you. I consider myself a serious amateur detailer, do it as a hobby. I never charge for detailing a car except to cover the cost of materials used and then ask the car's owner to conisder donating to one of several Tulsa Ok non-profits if they are happy with what I did for their car.
I need advice for removing imbedded brake dust from the wheels of a very good friend's 2010 Audi Q5. This is her daily driver and already has 15,000 miles in less than 9 months of ownership. Yesterday I had her Q5 for a day to do a quick mini-detailing on the outside. After claying the car, I tried clay on the wheels but didn't have much luck. I use Griot's Garage clay so am wondering if I need to try a more agressive clay to get the imbedded particles cleaned off. I searched several threads this morning relating to wheel cleaning and didn't find this issue directly discussed. It looks like after getting her wheels cleaned, DP Wheel Glaze is a well liked product to help prevent future build up.
I'll sure appreciate any guidance you can provide.
