I used it on average once every two to four weeks or so on my alloys for 5 years.

Snappa have you tried "Muc-Off" it's a special cleaner for mountain bikes but it seems to be pretty good for stubborn stuff on cars too. It's available from Halfords and good bike shops in a 1 litre refillable triggerpack

Nah they don't rust as such but the alloy can become anodised (I think it is!?) and stained.....

Stop doing this. I understand brake pad dust is not kind to alloys. Same will probably apply to birick dust. Thanks for the info anyway FREELANDER 2 TD4 SE (XS UK) IZMIR BLUE SIDE STEPS COLD PACK BI-XENON TINTED WINDOWS - AND PROUD OF HER |

Aluminium and most of its alloys are highly resistant to most forms of corrosion. The metal's natural coating of aluminium oxide provides a highly effective barrier to the ravages of air, temperature, moisture and chemical attack Steel just RUSTS 2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.
