Brake Dust

Anyone know of some good stuff that keeps brake dust off rims? I am sick of cleaning them every 3 days.

RE: Brake Dust

I used to wax my wheels from time to time to cut down on the brake dust. I helped a little bit, but overall not that effective. You may want to try some new brake pads?

RE: Brake Dust

I have also heard that you can use Pam and it helps. Can anyone confirm that or is it an urban legend.

RE: Brake Dust

Seems like Pam would cause things to stick? It's an oil.
