Suggestions on how to tackle this wheel problem?

[Rez90]

So the month of July was a tough one for me as for some reason my health just didn't want to cooperate...long story short i wasn't able to wash any of my cars in July. My wifes care was the worst and this morning i finally went outside to clean it.

After cleaning the front wheels i noticed this. Seems like brake dust/contaminants just found a way to bed into the finish of the wheel.

I'm thinking some optimum metal polish and a mothers power cone...but i'm not sure if that's a good idea or not or whether it'll damage the finish on the wheels.

I'm open to suggestions. Thanks in advance.

I would try Iron X first.

Sonax wheel cleaner and adgitate with a bores hair brush.

Sent from my SGH-T889 using AG Online

Sonax, ironx, and clay. Most likely one or a combination of the listed will get rid of that

Wolf's Deironizer. It's just as good and cheaper then Sonax and Iron x

I do have some wheel cleaner in my basement that I guarantee will take that off with just rinsing after you apply it but I have to silence you after I let you use it. Has Hydrofloric Acid base. It will clean anything. I can put about 1/2" in the bottom of a spray bottle and the rest water.

If you already tried something like:
SONAX Wheel Cleaner, all wheel cleaner, chrome wheel cleaner, aluminum wheel cleaner, full effect wheel cleaner or Iron X Iron Remover, CQuartz IronX, Paint Cleaner, paint decontamination
and
CarPro Tar X Tar & Adhesive Remover
you should go up the ladder:
Poorboy’s Spray and Rinse Wheel Cleaner 32 oz: Poorboy’s Wheel Cleaner is an aggressive citrus cleaner. poorboys wheel cleaner, one step wheel
Above that...enter the dreaded HF...not for me.
You can also try claying after all the chemical action.

But to clarify using Optimum metal polish is a BAD idea correct?
