I use a soft swissvax wheel brush,some cheap brushes from supermarkets are far to stiff and will leave very fine scratches if your not carefull
Should be soft like a new paintbrush not hard plastic bristles

I use the Meguiar's Ultra Safe Wheel Spoke Brush on my multispokes:

yeah if you get a cheap one the bristles are not soft, the one i had it flicked all the shit back at me, so when i was finished all 4 wheels ive be covered in black brake dust just use a sponge now, so much easier and less mess

yeah, you need a mask when you are using most wheelbrushes you always get brake dist and dirt flicked in your face!!

can beat a sponge and some elbow grease. also if you get a good wheel cleaner, spray on and then jetwash off, that works a treat!
