Every fall I like to give the car a good once over before it goes to bed for the winter. I've been cleaning it bit-by-bit the last couple weeks and tonite was wheel and underbody day. It was ugly. I think all the dirt from the car ended up on me. It looks pretty nice now though.
I removed all 4 wheels and cleaned the brake dust from the inside of the rims. I then cleaned the brakes with a wire wheel on a drill. Next was a solution of simple green and warm water. I used a couple scrub brushes and did all 4 wheel wells. After rinsing and drying I finished with a coat of silicone to shine it all up nice. Once it dries it will look like factory new.
Here is a pictire showing before and after of one of the rear wheelwells.
