Aluminum question

How do you clean brushed aluminum? All the other threads I read on this site pertains to polishing it.

I've always used APC diluted with water and a soft plastic brush then soaped down and rinsed...if I feel like there is an issue with water spots I use my leaf blower to dry off....

Are you talking about wheels, or trim? Trim is very delicate, and if you scrub too hard you will damage the brushed look.

I like the tip to use an APC (All-Purpose-Cleaner) and a soft brush. Rub LIGHTLY to get rid of residue. Wipe LIGHTLY with a dry MF cloth to dry.

Wheels are pretty durable, although just this morning I did see a car in the garage with a damaged aluminum wheel.
