Cleaning 3 piece wheels
Hi folks, I have a set of chrome hre 540 wheels. What is the best way to clean around the little nuts. The space accumulates dust and it is really hard to get in there. Thanks

Those bolts will take some time.
Yes Q-Tips or Foam-Tips would work.
But...I am thinking a water pressure washer is the easier answer.
FWIW I never found a spray on wheel clearer that I liked as in my
case once the cleaner was washed off, hand polishing of
all the "nooks & crannies" was needed.
So pressure washer is my two cents.
Have fun.

just sell the thing to someone with Obsessive compulsive disorder , and no worries.
You might want to see if a spin brush toothbrush would fit in the space you need to clean. ABout six bucks at target, and they sell extra brush heads. If that didn't work, I would motorize the q tips.

You can also buy these individually, I have both & are excellent quality, the blue are softer than the boars hair.

I ended up going the q-tip route. Sprayed the wheels with P21 and just worked the tip around each bolt. Got the results I was looking for.
Thanks everyone for your input.
