Shin, is that for zinc plated spokes?

The discoloration on zinc plated (galvanized) spokes is not dirt or grime. I haven't figured out a way to clean it. I'll try shower cleaner.

Stainless steel spokes are easy to clean. Well, I mean uncomplicated. It is labor intensive, only because there are so many and because of the crosses.
