Weekend Details: BMW 325 with PB Wheel Sealant

[SilverLexus]

This sealant is great and works well on the brake dust heavy BMW rotors:

These scans are not so good, you gotta see the slides I took. The paint was melting.



Process on body was P21S, Sonus Clay, SSR2.5, and Pinnacle Souveran.



Wheels was a test sample of PB Wheel Sealant after Eagle One A2Z wheel cleaning. Two weeks later the stuff is still very slick and brake dust wipes right off!

wow. beautiful.



and aren`t bmw`s know for their brake dust? how about spraying the wheel with water? is the PB`s wheel sealant good enough to do that?

I have the style #44 rims on my wifes Bimmer and the brake dust needs to be wiped off every other day. Sometimes when I don`t get around to it and they sit for a week, they look horrible. I know what you are going though

Can you clarify on this for me? Obviously, this isn`t the order but you were still able to go from SSR 2.5 to P21S? I`m shocked if so.

Jason I believe Lee used the P21S shampoo...clayed...SSR 2.5 then Souveran`d the Bimmer. I am shocked too as everytime I use SSR2.5 I get micromarring that I must follow up with either SSR1 or PwC to remove. Kudo`s to Lee if he did! :up

[JasonD]

Definitely, because that`s exactly what I was thinking. 2.5 is supposed to be some pretty potent stuff!

[fertzguy]

that bmw dust is a killer

[TW85 HHI]

Not bad. ;)



What did you use on the tires?

[SilverLexus]

Yes, the P21S was the shampoo. The SSR2.5 left a really clean surface with no marring that I could tell. It was like glass.



Greg, I used Zaino Z-16 on the tires.



I`m having new scans done. These scans are too hazy and low rez compared to the slides. They cost a lot but they are miles from the slide quality. I will post new digital pics next week.

nice job on the beammer lee... so when you gonna give me some souveran?? :D the wheels look good... especially the top left corner.. i think theres a reflection tryin to peak through.. so do you think that sealant is stronger than a regular paint sealant on there?

[White95Max]

Holy orange peel on that fender!

"so do you think that sealant is stronger than a regular paint sealant on there?"



A cheapie Costco MF seems to get most of the brake dust off with little effort now. Gotta be good for beemer drivers...

DO you have any idea as to how long that lasts??? I am considering taking the wheels off my wifes Bimmer and cleaning them inside and out and doing this.
