I bought their stuff a few years before cuz they uses pic of the interior of the car I drove, but didn't like it at all since it looked so greasy. i heard they came out with a new formula that doesn't look as greasy as before now.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

it doesn't really look greasy, that might depend on which wipe you're using though
the ones i used just brought out a really nice shine and enhanced the look

[ilvtofu]

The honey was pretty impressive :thumbsup: now someone go write a review!

[lilkulit]

wow gotta get these before i put my wheels back. my winter alloy front wheels turned black from brake dust, and thats with cleaning it every two weeks, while the rear wheels don't even need cleaning.

[tonyvu]

shit, i'm sold

[smoothie.]

wow, I wonder how long before someone crashes from this all over their brakes?

I wonder how bad it is for your wheel's paint/clearcoat.

[Boostaholic]

can you spray that all over your car?

[J____]

holy that looks awesome! must feel smooooooooooth like tittais after you apply that on ur rims!

[Benz_05TSX]

^ that's what I thought.....but if someone create something like this for the car paint, then we will never have to wash AGAIN!!! hahahahhaha

[TOPEC]

The honey was pretty impressive :thumbsup: now someone go write a review!

it's possible the honey watered down, like REALLY watered down, thats y the honey dripped off like water, OR, the product really works.

Exactly what I was thinking. I want to see some more reviews before I try it on my wheels.

[Iceman-19]

Fuck. I need this BAD. My wheels get SO fucking dirty SO quick. Damn you hawk pads.

[FeistyBearH22a]

Ill give them a call and see if this would be safe for use on bright anodized finishes.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

they have a booklet attach to their current armor all product

$5 dollar off the rim protection, $3 dollar off the tire dressing.

not permanent
i think i read that it has to be reapplied once a month?

a bit too good to be true if it was permanent :p

lets spray aerosol wax all over the brake rotors! genius

this would be good for people who have BBS rims haha

man if you have to spray this much, I wonder how long that little bottle's gonna last.

anyway, i'm just curious as to whether this is good for high-end aftermarket wheels, like in terms of the damage to the paint.

[spoon.ek9]

hell, i wouldn't mind trying this on some OEM wheels or silver steelies. i can even try it on my EF's paint since i don't care about it :lol

[hk20000]

That coat isn't going to do jack at brake temperatures. :rolleyes:

[68style]

Hey if anyone cares, I actually saw this thread this morning and then I was in the U.S. today... I was in Walmart and went to see if they have it... it's only $6.96 at Walmart... I picked up a can. Not sure when I will have time to try it but will try to soon :p

[you!]

i wanna hear some input on how it affects the paint on the wheels

[TheKingdom2000]

That coat isn't going to do jack at brake temperatures. :rolleyes:

This is what I was thinking... Even if it got onto the brake pads I don't think it will stay? The heat will likely melt it off... Kinda like when you finish a car wash you should pump your breaks a few times just in case?

On stock OEM wheels i'm sure this should be fine right?
ie. aluminum bimmer wheels?

[TheKingdom2000]

What do you mean? so attached to this product there are coupons?

OMFGWTFBBQ!!!!!!!!! im getting this shit for sure!!!!!!!!.... however i wouldn't do that with the rim ON the car ;) might not be a good idea for getting it on ur brakes since u dont' know whats in that shit

[68style]

According to the can I bought yesterday it has no warning labels about spraying on your brakes... you would assume in the highly litigious USA that if there was *ANY* risk whatsoever of it being dangerous for your car they would have something on there.

The only warning of any kind is to spray it in a well ventilated area and it suggests applying in temperatures above 65F

[Bonka]

EDIT:

Damn, missed that link.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

did u not watch the video? the guy puts a shit load of break dust/powder shit on the rims, and it repels right off

[unit]

be careful when you use this stuff.
its probably insanely hazardous to your health.

they'll probably find this stuff in the cells of monkeys in the middle of the amazon rainforest in a few years

[maxxxboost]

I just bought a can at Canadian Tire. They sell it for $12.99 so pretty much after tax, you`re look to spend about $15

[Drift_Monkey]

I wonder if this is ok to apply on headlights and brake lights?
I hate it when my headlights get so dirty when trailing behind cars on rainy days.

[thumper]

video blocked at work :(

was anyone able to find out if says anything about whether it works on all wheel finishes? ie. chrome, polished, or just painted?

what did the brake dust test involve (again i can't see the video at work)? my worst problem is brake dust that is baked onto the wheel from heat. if they just sprinkled it on a static wheel and then claim it repels.... meh.

[zulutango]

The pitchman looks like the Shamwow guy on valium. Nice Vivaldi background music...soothing.

i went out and bought this. if it works half as good or for half as long as advertised i'd be happy.

trust me, i don't think anything would stick on that stuff. imagine rainX times 1000

Yeah, the manufacturer video, meh, all the ones people made with their own tests? i believe it.

[MG1]

That's how much it was at Walmart, too. Walmart loves the number 7, so I think it was actually, $12.97, LOL.

I hope they have it at Superstore. Gotta start using my freaking points. I have like a couple hundred dollars worth in points.

[thumper]

let us know how it works out for you :thumbsup:

[thumper]

egh i have no patience whatsover... i went to walmart and bought a can of this stuff. there is a small mail-in discount that is on a little tag hanging from the can, but not all the cans had them so buy accordingly.

the weather was dry yesterday, so i went and washed my dad's car with his painted aluminum wheels and did the treatment. it dried overnight and this morning he was out driving in the rain and i just came back from looking at it and.... surprise! although the car is soaking wet from the rain, the wheels are not only just clean, but they are bone dry as well (tires are wet though!) :eek:

as for my wheels... i have clear anodized face with a polished lip. i'm still working out the courage to try it (worried it might stain the lips and i hate polishing them) but it's raining now and i park outside so it's going to be a no-go for awhile for me (sigh). damn pagids keep turning my wheels into charcoal briquettes :flamemad:

[DsZ24]

Found a vid on youtube of it, almost looks fake how it worked lol

YouTube- Armor All Wheel Protectant Mud test

[Hondaracer]

^ wow crazy

[unit]

i applied a generous amount on my wheels yesterday around 5pm.
it rained overnight, i drove home in the rain, and checked the wheels this morning.
they look ok, but under inspection you can still see dirty spots. its far from perfect.
still maybe too early to judge.
if they are relatively clean in 4-5 days then i think i'll continue using this product.

[TheKingdom2000]

To the people who applied it to their car...

after 4 wheels, was the can pretty light? Because, I don't see the can lasting for more than a couple cars max?

[Strzelec]

Can anyone else confirm if this actually works?
Looks like a pretty interesting product to try out, and would be great if i didnt have to clean the wheels every 2 days

[thumper]

it's like hairspray, so it's more of a misting rather than a full blown paint spraycan.

i was pretty stingy when i did it. it didn't give it several coats like some of the video demos did. maybe it needs more to last the 4 week claim armorall says.

[twitchyzero]

if only this can sustain the effects of tire shine as well..

[unit]

i was not stingy when i used it. i almost soaked my wheels.
i probably used almost half the can on 4 wheels.

the can is pretty small. more narrow than a hairspray can, and costs $12.99.

[mike_cool79]

I bought this stuff too from canadian tire. I tried it 2 nights ago but I didn't spray on a whole lot of this stuff like in the video above. I drove it in the pouring rain last night and this morning when I went to look at my rims they were relatively clean except a few particles of dirt. It might be too early to judge though.

just use any good sealant on your headlights. works like a charm.

I want to buy this product and try it but I’m nervous that using this product overtime will fuck up my wheels.

day 3, wheels are showing dirt. not a miracle product but that shouldnt surprise anyone.

[TOPEC]

^let it get a bit more dirty then see if u can just rinse it off.

[DHP 1]

u soaked it really well, and day 3 it got dirty already?

maybe you put too much?

[Jsunu]

hmm I though it was just a coat over the wheels that somewhat prevents dirt but also allows dirt to be easily washed out of the wheels. Unless i am assuming wrong.

shit time to sue them lol

[Harvey Specter]

I think I'll stick to wheel wax.

[G-spec]

I think a lot depends on the type of finish your wheels have... in that video you can tell they were brand new super glossy wheels, fresh clearcoat and all...

Unit your wheels look like the clearcoat faded quite a lot so I'm assuming that's why it didn't work as well (not dissing your wheels by the way, just saying that's probably why)


speaking of this I gotta go create another thread I'm trying to have someone clear bra the lips of my new set of wheels

[Strzelec]

Doesnt look like its worth the 13 bucks sadly...

[Eff-1]

someone here needs to do a comparison between the left and right front wheels. apply to one side. don't apply to the other. drive for a week. and compare.

[!e.lo_]

hmm, im heading down to the states next week, prob going to pick up a bunch of shit at walmart... god damn walmart.
anyone want me to pick up a can or two for them?

[Marco911]

Also, just hose down the wheel and see if it becomes clean again.

[Ducdesmo]

I just picked up a can from Crappy Tire. It comes with a instant $3 rebate on the $13 price.

I will try it out and let you know how it goes. My brembos spit out quite a bit of brake dust weekly, so hopefully this product will minimize the amount of cleaning that is required.

[flagella]

Quoted from another forum:

C'mon guys, you should all be better than believing merlin. It's nothing more than an oil based substance. You can achieve the same exact effect by spraying your wheels with baby oil, and leaving it for an hour to dry.

While I agree, it's a "good product" all they did was stick oil in a bottle.

[124Y]

Looks pretty impressive from the videos. I don't know if it'll have the same effect on matte wheels though. :(

[thumper]

update. does not work that well on my polished lips and anoidized face. just looks like a greasy mess, but it comes off on my finger rather than the scrubbing i usually do. spraying with a spray gun made things worse.

however, my dad's oem silver painted wheels are still fine. waiting to see what it will turn into in the upcoming rainfall though.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

so it does vary depending on the surface of the rims

[thumper]

well, here is the bitter truth for me... a few days of good weather and then rain:

http://www.revscene.net/forums/picture.php?albumid=150&pictureid=2498

yes what you see below is staining:

http://www.revscene.net/forums/picture.php?albumid=150&pictureid=2500

it comes off with a lot of scrubbing. looks like i have my work cut out for me this weekend :flamemad:

so right now i give it an F- ... i haven't seen the results on my dad's car yet. maybe monday.

[alex.w *//]

aite have 2 bottles right now, goin to try it out on white painted wheels when the weather becomes better

[Ducdesmo]

Used it on my car and drove around in the rain for the past 2 days. Mind you, my brakes emit a lot of brake dust, but so far it's still relatively clean. I have OEM rims (if that makes a difference).

[autocouture]

Someone try it out and report back.

[Supafly]

Okay so i went and bought this product....first off my rate is 5/10.

Went and cleaned my wheels which had an mirror face and polished lip.... it works well for the first 2 days, and anything after that is a mess.

If you have a lip on your wheels, forget about using this product... it will trap debris and brake dust.

If you intend to wash your car and wheels often with half decent conditioner, expect a white mess all over your nice wheels. Fairly tough to remove with a soft brush as it smears when touched...I had to remove it with steamin hot water and a Megs Brush...fml wasted 15 bucks...dont buy this shit if you have rims that costs a left nut and right kidney...shit will make you work 4x as hard when its time to wash your car.

Oh and btw, THIS SHIT DOESNT REPEL HOT CERAMIC BRAKE DUST. IT FUCKING COOKS IT INTO UR RIM.
