Wire wheel cleaning

["Dick Benjamin" <DickB@xxxxxxxxx>]

On my now departed Blue low mileage 81, I fought this problem until I was
blue, in the face.  Finally, I took the wheel covers all the way apart, all
96 pieces per wheel!   Cleaned and waxed every one;  they looked marvelous
(for a little while).  Actually, they looked new for about a year after
that, because the crud rolled off pretty easy every time I washed the car.
