I use Rejex on my carrera wheels, and it is a good long lasting treatment to help keep brake dust down to a minimum.

You will still need to wipe down the wheels often, but using rejex allows you to just use a wet rag.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

This may seem petty but its a royal pain! When I wash my car ('04 996) which is equipped with the 18" Carrera rims, some dirty water seems to get trapped behind the spokes or elsewhere inside the wheel. As soon as the car is driven, this crap is flung over the wheel and requires a secondary cleaning with a rag and some sort of detail spray or whatever is handy. The fronts seem to get it worse than the back, maybe due to the camber on the rear. I have tried aggressive hose-down but nothing seems to work, is this why some people remove their wheels to clean them? The previous owner had the inside of the rims painted, not sure if this is relevant. PS - there is a duplicate question in the car care section (or whatever its called)

POST 2Original post

The gunk that you are talking about comes from the rotor vent slots. When you dry the wheel, try wiping down the rotor edges as well. I use Rejex on my carrera wheels, and it is a good long lasting treatment to help keep brake dust down to a minimum. You will still need to wipe down the wheels often, but using rejex allows you to just use a wet rag.
