Default Suggestions on Rim Cleaning Products?

What are your suggestions for a good rim cleaning product, something that will be good to use on a polished lip as well.

and just want confirmation, it's bad to use wax on a rim right?

P21S has a good wheel cleaner, espeically the Gel.

You can wax your rims, it will allow brake dust to easily be washed. There are special waxes for rims I believe but if you have a clear coat on rims, then a body wax will work no problem.

oem rims have a clear coat on them so i wax them because as dom said, brake dust will just wash right off. as for rim cleaning product... if you clean them regularly... just use your wash bucket after washing your car. If you do this regularly it's almost effortless.

you can get some at eshine.ca.

If you also don't already have one get a wheel brush to like the EZ brush to get in the inner rim.
