Is Adam’s Wheel cleaner safe on shiny M Double-spoke jet black wheels and red caliper

The post title pretty much says it all, I’m looking for something to help remove brake dust, especially off the caliper. I’m currently using chemical guys signature wheel cleaner. It does a good job, but I have a hard time getting rid of the brake dust on the caliper even with a brush. Thanks!

Yes it's safe. I have ceramic coating on my wheels and brake calipers and brake dust comes off with soap and water. You should consider.

I use a pressure washer (foam cannon) spray the wheel and caliper, I'll grab a microfiber cloth and clean and rinse. I gave away 3 gallons of Sonax wheel cleaner because I didn't need it.

I was thinking of getting s pressure washer. I don’t want to mess with a gas powered pressure washer, would electric power washer work just as well.
