Default "Dry" wheel cleaning, is there a safe way to do this??

As Im sure many do on this board. I spend a few hours washing my car after every few rides. But I just donthave time to do this after every ride.. I go over the paint "very" lightly with a california car duster after every ride, which works well.. You dont have to rub, it just picks the dust "up" off the paint..The wheels are another story.

In between washes, the wheels get a "light" brake dust coating on them VERY quickly.. I could literally drive 20 miles, and have a coating on them...

Is there a "safe" way to keep up with this in between washes, without getting the hose out?

I see Mequiars now sells a quick detailer for wheels. Is this safe to use? Or do I just need to put a hose/soap to it, after every ride??

The 5-spoke wheels on the SRT seem VERY sensitive to scratches. Much more than the GTS..
