I had some black gunk on one of my wheel and I used the tar/bug remover to get it off. It worked really well. It got rid of the heavy tar built up easily. I am wondering could I use the tar/bug remover on all the wheels? The tar/bug remover label states it can also be use to remove grease and oil. So, I think it can help me get rid of the brake dust easier? Usually I can just use a brush to get rid of the brake dusts, but a few spots the brake dusts are harder to clean off with the brush. It worked fine getting rid of the black gunk that I had.

Simple Green and Bleche-Wite Brake Dust Buster <- this thing cuts through brake dust like a hot knife through butter.. a must if you have White Wheels.. man i was impressed with that Bleche-Wite stuff.. they have a tire cleaner too thats pretty good.. my cousin sprayed the Brake dust Buster on his stock SE wheels.. man those things were shiny too

Is the Bleche-Wite stuff safe to use on silver wheels too or just for white wheels? I don't want it to eat through the coating on my wheels.
