Never heard of Brembo dusting so much...I know that all german cars dusts like crazy. My g/f's BMW in 3 days will have more brake dust then my Acura in 3 weeks...
Although my Infiniti does dust quite a bit...Meguiar's Wheel Brightener can work well on caked on dust...never use it on polished alluminum...Never buy polished alluminum wheels...

same here man. my gf has a 98 328i and those rims are filthy every time she comes home from school. every week I have to clean it because the last time I cleaned it I must have spent a good couple of hours just really working those things.

I think it really depends on your pads. I've had factory Brembo pads, switched them for high performance Ferrodo pads and now they dust twice as much. But my car stops faster and doesn't fade anymore. My buddy with race pads never got his wheels clean. The high temps that a race pad can reach really makes the dust hard to take off if you don't clean them off before 24hrs. time.

Hehe, I forgot that I was going to do a review on the SteamFast SF-275. One more thing to add to the "to-do" list.

I really like using my steamer on the interior. Never thought about using it for the wheels. Thanks!
