WD40 makes the brake dust stick to your rims like glue, almost as bad as when you overspray silicon tyre blacker onto the wheels. Wipe that sh!t off!

I use Zymol wheel protector. Brake dust still covers the wheel but its not nearly as heavy as when I left them untreated. Makes the spokes easier to clean too, as the dust just blows off.
