    does anyone know where i could pick up a brush locally to use to clean the inner barrels of my rims? or even something similar to an acepowerstick, but cheaper.

    I was thinking that carquest might have something.

    any help ins much appreciated

    HF has good ones, but the one I have seen talked about the most is the RaceGlaze wheel brush from Ken. I have had no issues with the ez-detail brush though.

    Try a toilet brush. I'm not even kidding, I was thinking about it the other day.

    Toilet bowl brushes are pretty stiff. My fav brush is a bottle brush from OXO. Look for them at Home Outfitters etc. Usually under $10.

    I swear the wooden ones with green bristles are the same one many online stores are selling for many times the HF price.

    Save your pennies and get a Raceglaze XL... You won't regret that decision for even one second...

    There is a brush at Target that cleans dryer lint. Its like 2ft long and the bristles are super soft. Like other things, it bends pretty well and works decent too. If you're interested, its at some Targets in the cleaning isle where you find their kitchen/floor cleaning stuff

    I've been using the EZ but that Raceglaze looks like it might work better. Any tips on applying LSP to relatively wide (10") barrels without having to remove the wheels from the car?
