Cleaning brake dust off wheels

Our houshold pressure washer (2600psi, 2.5gpm) does a fine job!  Although, I
believe the warnings in the pressure washer manual about using the stream at
high pressure around the tires ... "may penetrate or weaken" so I use the fan
shape at a safe distance.  I do use a detergent to loosen the soil first.
