what is the best way to keep the brake dust off my bbs'?
i know for track days petroleum jelly is good to use
but is there anything else out there that works and is more practical for daily driving?
thanks

Don't use the brakes....

I would rather clean brake dust off my wheels than petroleum jelly.

not using brakes is kinda tough
and i never tried the jelly thing
i just heard it works
but i would imagine it would be a pain to get off

use ceramic pads

Youre going to get dust no matter what. A good rule of thumb is the better the pad compound the more its going to dust. If you track your car theres no way around it. If someone tells you that this brand stops well on the track and doesnt dust is lying to you.

i think there is a spray you can buy to spray on after you wash your wheels. it will help remove the brake dust easier next time around.

just wash them good every car wash. i do that, and it is no problem keeping my wheels clean. o and occasionally i will remove the wheels and really get in there.

but i wash my car atleast once a week so i keep the dust off pretty good

+1 I use wheel spray (Z1 I think) and wash them every other day or so keeps them looking like new.

whatever you do, DON'T fall for the PAM/cooking oil thing. I was dumb enough to think people were serious and ended up spending ages cleaning gooey gunk with sand, dirt, and brake dust in it off my wheels. I was the butt of a joke.

A few of my friends who own Corvettes swear by this product called Rejex. I'm gonna try this and let you know if its worth purchasing.

I think there was a thread about it awhile ago.

best way is to wash the car and rims. and then park it in the garage and dont drive it.

I asked Robi to see his POV on these types of thing. Interestingly enough, he suggested using a light coat of PAM spray -I've personally seen him do this on his own track cars.

I tried that, and the result was what I posted above maybe I didn't use the right kind, but I was cursing every post I saw about that for every minute of the several hours I spent scrubbing the crap off all 8 of my wheels with bug and tar remover.
Just a warning to others.
