Default Clean Rims

I was just washing my car today and noticed the rims being very dirty. I was using some commercial paper towel with water to scrub it but couldn't get some of the muck off. I actually thought I got stone chips on it but upon using my finger nails it came off.

What I'm looking for are the tools to expedite the process as it's taking forever to do one rim. Any suggestions? I just don't want to scratch them because they're still mint.

Thanks.

Claybar, agreed...its time consuming especially if you have alot of spokes.

You can also try Tarminator spray in the can...Crappy T has it

don't worry, there should still be primer underneath (or what's now on top) and that should be black too?
