wheel cleaner

so its been raining for almost two months striaght here and today it was sunny so i decided to wash just my rims. Then i see that not only are they pitted worse than before, theres a few small little rust spots, my dad says to clean them off with a steel wool cloth and some cleaner. is this a good idea? if so what type of cloth and cleaner should i use? if its not a good idea, what should i use to clean them up? thanks

Re: wheel cleaner

Your dsd is right on the money, use FINE (Like grade 0000) steel wool and plenty of cleaner, glass cleaner works well IMO. It won't take care of the pitting, but it will get rid of that ugly rust
