Default What do you put on your rims to make them easy to clean?

I just got a set of Hartmann RS4 reps from a seller on AZ. I am wondering if there is anything out there I can put on the rims to make for easy cleaning. It seems to me the more wear on a rim the harder the brake dust comes off. What can I put on the rim (let's say monthly) to keep it slick and make it easy to clean?

I have some of that "wax as you dry" spray that you just wipe on then wipe off. If you are being serious, you think that would be OK to spray on there?
