    if it's one bad thing now days it's downloading is a breeze but when comes to uploading it's the complete opposite. I hate uploading large files.

    Emile Welcome to Detailing

    I had to drop off some used motor oil at my local Auto Zone this morning so I checked the store and they didn't have this product in stock at all.

    Drove a bit further down the street to the Pep Boys and they didn't have it, either. But at least they had two bottles of the new Meg's Ultimate Wash & Wax....but $10 for 48oz is ridiculous so I only bought one bottle.

    Well I picked up one just for the heck of it, cleaned my wheels, and on one side i have the armor all stuff, other side is fk1000p. lets see what happens.

    Armor all is much easier to apply than fk1000p though. Also for paste wax it gets annoying when getting dirt inside the tin can again.

    but back to topic, I think fk1000p have better durability...

    I have some fk1000p in a 4oz pot to use just on wheels for that purpose.

    It was just a whim if it helps clean wheels easier then oh well, but if not then i will just use it up and not get it again.

    At the least it sounds like it would be good for the barrels.

    Okay I applied the armor all on all four of my wheels, 2 layers just for safety. I let it sat for the whole night without touching it. So today I was driving it for quite a long time and it seems like my wheels have brake dust on it again...sigh...

    Prior to applying the armor all, I washed the wheels clean with AG CWC. It pretty much stripped off my colly 845, so the rim is not protected any more. I then applied the armor all.

    I don't see anything too majorly wrong on my application part, so I don't get why there are still brake dust!!~

    Pretty sure you will still get some dust, but cleaning will be easier and may not get as much later when you pile up alot. My take is, no way to prevent dust from staying on the wheels, but ease of cleaning, i.e. hitting it with a hose is where protection helps.

    I guess you're right,at least spraying it on is alot quicker than applying with wax. But the armor all is quite expensive, considering the can always feel like it's half empty.
