Please share your method because I'm tired of cleaning brake dust off my wheels and can save some money by not having to buy wheel cleaner! 😁
Easy buy lifetime pads, they will never wear or make dust.... You will replace rotors every 3 years...

When's the last time you cleaned and re-applied silicone grease (line syl-glide) to the guide pins? And have you ever taken the pads off to clean the slides/slide hardware? This should be considered normal maintenance every 25k miles or so. When I got my bronco used at 58k miles, I changed every fluid in the thign and lubed the brakes - the guide pins were covered in hardened black sludge, which I cleaned off with a wire brush and some brakleen, and re-lubed with syl-glide, just like I said. The rears were in the same condition.
