It's starting to seem like I'm in the minority on this, because people on detailing forums seem convinced that this stuff works, but I just don't see it. I've tried it on both of my vehicles, and have seen no evidence to support the notion that this stuff helps keep wheels cleaner longer.
- 2004 Honda S2000 with Mintex race compound brake pads
- 1999 Ford F250 with OEM Ford brake pads
I kept the receipt for this stuff - I got it on sale at Target. I think I'm going to ask Armor All for my six bucks back.

After cleaning your wheels thoroughly apply a sealant like Rejex or Klasse AIO and your wheels will stay cleaner. But the main benefit is they will be easier to clean and will have a nice shine.

i really like this stuff. it's fairly cheap and does a good job at keeping my rims clean alot longer.
first application i let sit overnight and the results were pretty impressive to me. Normally after a week of my normal commute my rims are are gray filled with brake dust. After my first treatment i noticed that the same time frame my rims were still relatively shiny, almost completely clean, minus some small corners in the rims.
for roughly $6 this is a great product.
