Brembo Brake dust is not a wheel guys friend lol

I would recommend to liquid coat and seal the wheels prior to driving on them it helps to allow for the dust and grim to come off easy.

Just what Paul said.....once you have some product on your wheels they're a bit easier to clean, but doesn't mean that they won't get dirty quick.....they will, just a consequence of having the Brembo's, but one i'll gladly take over not having them.

ya I upgraded my car with a BBK and ceramic pads and it kicks alot of dust, so the new wheels once I had them refinished I sealed them with a liquid coat seal and now the dust and dirt come right off when I wipe them, plus it gives it a nice dark glossy look when their clean.
