armor all wheel cleaner vs. duplicolor wheel paint . . .

[Dave]

i picked up this cleaner to try something different to get the brake dust off. It does that, and removes paint as well!!!!!!!!

On the rears that I did not treat with this, paint is fine - on the fronts - they look like a melanoma patient now. FUCK!!!!!!

You should go talk to the guys at the place you bought it from, see if they'll give you a free can of paint.

If it is tire cleaner it is probably eating the coat you hav eon the rims sorry.

UMMM, I am not that fucking stupid. :roll:

It does say wheel cleaner, and it says it is safe for painted surfaces.

If I have the receipt, I'll go talk to Bubba and Billy Joe at Advance Auto and see what they will do. I have plenty of the paint, but could always use another can.

Doesn't look like those wheels are clear coated, thus that is your mistake.

Actually, they were. It's a shit picture.

EDIT: Went to Advance, got the same Darrell, or Jessie, or whatever his name was behind the counter who recommended the stuff. He remebered and apologized. Gave me two cans each of Graphite and Clear Coat to re-do the wheels.

that's what happens when you use cheap paint on your wheels.
