    Best brush for wheels

    Anyone know of a nice skinny brush that can clean the spokes of the wheels good?

    I use this:http://www.autozone.com/wash-mitts-c...ush/630275_0_0
    It's designed for lug nuts, but the bristles are on a wire, so you can bend it to make each bristle side-by-side, similar to the mini blind duster posted above.

    I buy those at harbor freight for cleaning my guns with. I get 3 of them for 1.99, one in steel, one in brass, and one in nylon like above.

    I actually use that lug nut brush myself... probably based on your previous recommendation. It works pretty well.

    I have seen similar brush sets like you describe but they're usually too fat to fit in the spaces. I'll have to check Harbor Freight.
