I want to buy the powerball mini or cone and use the powermetal:

to polish my OEM wheels (G35 19"). I have some baked on brake dust and discoloration from the previous owner and wanted to know if this would take care of it.

Thanks for your help.

have you tried clay bar? That will help remove the break dust you're referring to.

Stock Z wheels have a clear coat on them, you shuold be good to go. I would get some wheel wax if brake dust is a problem. www.chemicalguys.com

Wah & clean the wheels & then clay bar, & then if this works try the wheel wax to keep the problem in check.
