Wheel cleaner on wheel covers...

I use Eagle 1 A-Z Wheel cleaner on my Si rims and it does a great job of getting the junk off in a hurry. Yesterday, I did my mom a favor and washed her Jetta, and I can't get the brake dust off the wheel covers. The bottle says for use on metal, but doesn't say you CAN'T use it on plastic, has anyone used wheel cleaner on wheel covers? Does it take the paint off or does it work? Otherwise, I've got a lot of toothbrush scrubbing to do. Thanks....

ive done it before and it has worked good, but there is still a good amount of scrubbing that you will have to do. it will loosen up the break dust and dirt.

I heard somewhere that you could put wheel covers in the dishwasher and they'd come out really clean
