all i use is car shampoo if washing, or if just removing brake dust, i spray QD into my soft MF towel and gently wipe off the dust. i dont use any harsh chemicals.

most detailer places use fancy detergents and cleaners that do more harm than good, imho.
Thats what Nissan immediately said on my wheels, but in my case I use Meguiars cleaners and been using it on all my case for years with no problem. But because that created a doubt on me anyways, I went to two different dealersships and snoop around and found a few 370 with the same problem on the inside edges of the wheel. Took pictures, sent it to Nissan and they clear their hands by sending me a letter saying "we are professionals, we know what you damage your wheels, case close" Thats when the BBB took over and I requested a powder coating professional to give me his opinion and thats when Nissan then responded to BBB "ok we are going to powder coated for free"

But like I said they powder coated with a weird dull grey.
