Warning: Armor All Wheel Cleaner

[RedAV]

Warning, DO NOT use Armor All Wheel Cleaner.

I used it for the first time to clean my 3 weel old AV wheels. I used it strictly according to the the directions.

Almost immediately I got spotting and haziness on the wheel clear coat. Only after working for several hours buffing did I get spots off. It doesn't seems like it cut to the bottom of the clear coat.

For those who do have this in the future a light buff with with a Scotchbright pad.

Of course officially there was a small disclaimer to test it on a small inconspicuous spot first. Yea! Right! How about making it a little larger next time?

Too much laziness on my part. I guess I will have to use some elbow muscle from now on.

Just so this doesn't happen to me, by chance did you let the cleaner dry before washing it off? One time I let the stuff dry on my old S-10 Blazer wheels. Completely hazed up, but I sprayed more on and it came right off. I haven't used it yet on my AV wheels. I find that if I keep up with normal washings on wheels, there is no brake dust build up.

Let me know about the drying part so I can pitch the rest of my bottle!

Thanks
