Yeah Paul I noticed the brownish color shows up or noticeable after a few weeks. See first pic. No big deal since you can't see it after re-doing the cleaner. I try to apply the spray monthly since I'm in the desert Southwest.




After application and a few minutes. Then wipe off excess with a rag.




End product.

Re: any truth to this?

I wish they made rim covers that you could put over your rims while you spray this stuff so you don't have to clean your rims twice! It's bugging me so much, I'm thinking about making somthing that will wedge in between the rim and the tire so you can polish your rims up, put on the cover, wax the tires, remove the cover and then they look perfect.

Re: any truth to this?

I like those tips. I need to adjust mine too. The shop that installed them was full of morons.

Thanks. I posted pics of it last summer when I drove it down from Salt Lake City to El Paso. Pic shows parked on that highway between SLC and Moab during a rest stop.

Ha, for some reason the only pic I remember that you posted was that...unusual rock formation that you were amused by.
