fair enough, the product claims to be for all aluminum wheels, polished, cleared, and Mag too. The product says to spray a copious amount on the wheels, let sit for 30sec, and rinse clean with decent water pressure. Doing so will leave wheels sparkling clean and with a "Factory" shine. This is not the case. While the product is very pleasing to the senses due to the high amount of banana oil or Isoamyl Acetate, the desired effects leave you broken hearted and wanting you $7.99 and five minutes of time back. The wheels cleaned up immediately but this was short lived. As soon as they dried, there was a white salt like crust on the lips, which looked like pitting. This only went away after I polished it out, the exact thing I was trying to avoid today. So, I am giving this product two very enthusiastic thumbs down, and will be attempting to get my money back from autozone tomorrow. I wish I would have asked some questions before I bought my wheels with polished lips. Looks like I will have to take them off for awhile, still snowing too often in Ft. Dumb, NY.
