Default Black Magic Wheel Cleaner--Opinions?

Just wondering if anyone here has tried this stuff on their wheels, Avus or aftermarket. A friend used it on his tacoma--sprayed it on and then rinsed off with a hose and voila, the brake dust was gone and the wheels were clean.

I did a search and didn't come up with much.

Thanks.

Try a concentrated dose of Simple Green...cheap, easy to find, biodegradeable. Works great.

Default simple green will eat through clearcoat.. my friend made a mistake of using

it on his BBS RS-GTs and the clearcoat on the lip eventually peeled away.

they were once my wheels... and it hurt to see them peel. =(

Default and the beauty behind P21S... you can leave it on for an extended amount of time

and it will not damage your wheels.
