Zinc Dust From Coated Rotors

I just installed a set of Z23 Powerstop brake pads and zinc plated rotors on my 2017 2SS.

Braking is way better as my stock rotors were very warped.

But after bedding the brakes I have a good bit of zinc dust on my wheels. I got as must as I could off of them by scrubbing by hand but there is still some that is very stuck on. My wheels are the matte black wheels.

What would be a good cleaner for this?

My usual go to is Chemical guys diablo wheel cleaner but after having this stuff recommended to me 3 times (once by a pro detail shop) I started using P&S brake buster and am very impressed with it

Works as good as diablo but fraction of the price
