Roger, I thought you were out of your mind with the Easy Off but after overcoming the apprehension of putting oven cleaner anywhere near my car, I'm a believer. It's not the end all to brake dust, but the best results I've seen (tried Eagle One, Meguiars, Mothers). I applied twice and only let it sit for about 30sec-1min each time with no ill effects on the wheels. Thanks for the tip!

N.B. If you are looking for a good engine cleaner/degreaser, I've found Fantastik Orange Action worked wonders under the hood.

Here's to kitchen solutions!

Cheers,

John
