Someone in the office just mentioned this today. I would be interested in seeing how well it repels water/dirt/grime over time as well. Hopefully it wouldn't make the finish deteriorate though. I have seen similar products before, and the results are pretty interesting.



A lot of people don't like Armor All products though.

seems to leave a frosted finish, so probably not going to look good on non-matte wheels

wow that product looks awesome. And it's made by Armor all! What's the product called actually because I'm not sure I've seen it here in Canada before.

I use the Armor All product on my AG m310's and I love it. One can only lasts maybe two uses on all 4 wheels, and it only lasts 2 weeks on the wheel. But it's certainly better than nothing!

That stuff works great but doesn't last long at all. I'm not pulling my wheels every 2-3 weeks to apply this product.

Just did some research on the stuff. I think I'm just going to stick with other recommended sealants instead.

Looked up the product on ebay. The cheapest one was $13-$14. Looked at pepboys.com and it's $8.99 with a $5 mail-in rebate. Good time to give this product a shot.

To my knowledge, Neverwet is going to leave a more opaque/white looking finish on the top layer. It may last longer than the Armor All stuff though.

why not just wax them with a wheel wax at the beginning of the season, and when you rotate the wheels, clean them and apply again. ive done that and it works well.

try this; http://www.amazon.com/automotive/dp/B000JK2D06
