some hacker probably decided to have a little fun at their webmaster's expense.
It's always been a popular site so I imagine the IT guys will get it back up and running soon. (I hope)

Forgot his name, but I know he can be an *** at times. He never cared for the forum suggestion section either.

I am having issues getting brake dust stains (hardly noticeable except to me) off of my Volks, I remember reading there about some wheel spray professionals use that is safe. I wanted to search for it.

P21S wheel gel is what you want. That's what the pros use on Autopia. I use ONR on my Volks and the dust comes right off. Never had problems with stains ever, granted I wash mine every week to two weeks, and never let them get that dirty. I would seal them with Klasse Sealant Glaze after you clean them. That stuff is the most durable and looks great! That's what I use, and it makes cleaning them so easy.

Thanks, I clean mine at least twice a week but the previous owner of them did not clean them as often so there are some stains I am trying to get out but I didn't want to use a scrub brush and I am just using turtle wax car wash to clean them and a microfiber mitt. I used the clay bar and waxed the lips of the rims using turtle wax ice and it came out nice but the painted surfaces on the spokes still have some stains that are bugging me.
