song77 2nd Gear May 20, 2018 Author Share May 20, 2018 Thanks to a bro here who mentioned that Armour All Products are at 25 percent off at auto bac I bought Amour All Brake dust repellent and its tyre wax. Lets see how it goes. Must resist buying cleaning products. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky2007 Turbocharged May 20, 2018 Share May 20, 2018 Autobacs. Now got 25% off so itâs $14+ per bottle. Bought one last week. I will not sacrifice my car braking power for cleaner wheels. To me itâs not worth it. Same view as mine. I’m using one of the dustiest brake pads, EBC Yellow Stuff, and now using another slightly less dust pads , EBC Blue Stuff, that’s more abrasive to rotors.. but it bites very well. No compromise to braking distance.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fcw75 Hypersonic May 24, 2018 Share May 24, 2018 Got FR on the amourall repellent? Been using it for years. I would say it's worth it. The rims doesn't get dirty as easily, can last longer between washes. If you want me to put a time period to it. If without using it, my front rims will get dirty in a week. But if I used the Armorall, it will take about 2 weeks before getting to the same dirty state. BUT I still don't get it why TS called it SLEEPY looking rims....Dirty is it?

Fcw75 Hypersonic May 24, 2018 Share May 24, 2018 (edited) So if wash car & rim, the repellent oso will wash off or not? Yes will. Maybe if do those sealant on the rims then won't wash off. @carbon82 mentioned to me before. Edited May 24, 2018 by Fcw75 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vratenza Supersonic May 25, 2018 Share May 25, 2018 Actually I am different from most in this thread..... I actually don't mind brake dust.... My rims are high sheen aluminum finish..... About 1 week after washing, it will achieve a titanium sheen to it.....2 weeks never wash, it will change to dusky dark titanium effect.... After each wash, revert back to original. Where to find colour changing rims like that? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

song77 2nd Gear May 26, 2018 Author Share May 26, 2018 (edited) Lai lai.....mai sleepy Yes i bought this from AutoBac. And another tyre shine product. But as another member pointed out, these products could be washed off during car wash. Everytime after i wash car, I will reapply. I believe the idea is to have a shining tyre, will compensate sleeping looking rims (i.e: dirty rims). :) Edited May 26, 2018 by song77 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcw75 Hypersonic May 26, 2018 Share May 26, 2018 Meguiar’s Endurance Gel tyre shine is one of the best. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
