Subaru Outback (BR): Cleaning aluminum wheels
● Promptly wipe the aluminum wheels clean of any kind of grime or agent. If dirt
is left on too long, it may be difficult to clean off.
● Do not use soap containing grit to clean the wheels. Be sure to use a neutral
cleaning agent, and later rinse thoroughly with water. Do not clean the wheels with
a stiff brush or expose them to a high-speed washing device.
● Clean the vehicle (including the aluminum wheels) with water as soon as possible
when it has been splashed with sea water, exposed to sea breezes, or driven on roads
treated with salt or other agents.
