Mercedes-Benz GL-Class: Cleaning the wheels
Do not use acidic wheel cleaning products
to remove brake dust. This could damage
wheel bolts and brake components.
Do not park the vehicle for an extended
period straight after cleaning it, particularly
after having cleaned the wheels with wheel
cleaner. Wheel cleaners could cause
increased corrosion of the brake discs and
brake pads/linings. For this reason, you
should drive for a few minutes after cleaning. Braking heats the brake discs and
the brake pads/linings, thus drying them.
The vehicle can then be parked.
