So much better!

Have you tried an iron dissolver such as Iron-X or Decon Iron?

These products chemically react with the brake dust to break it down. This reaction causes the product to turn purple (and they have an odd sweet smell). Then you rinse off.

My experience with the Car Pro Iron X is it works well on removing light brake dust on wheel exteriors, but for that baked on, old, heavy duty kind in inner wheels no matter what product you use will need a significant amount of wet sanding, compound and elbow grease.
