Planning on diluting it 1:1 with water....just wondering if it's safe to do it or not



MB brake dusts are pain in the ***...



can I spray PB S&R on rotors and caliper as well?

planning on painting my caliper



3rd question...can I use it about once a month...will it damage my wheels??
 
I can't say if those wheels have a CC or not.



I use it once a month FS on the wife's BMW wheels 1-2 times a month. After 1.5yrs of use the center plastic caps are starting to get etched somewhat.



I am thinking on your benz wheels, I would use it once to get them really clean. They I would apply a good AIO and then a sealant. On a few clients wheels, I have used ZAIO and CS with very good results. One friend has a newer super bee with the brembo calipers/pads, after 5 months he said all he has to do is wash with carwash soap and the dust comes right off.
 
if you rub it with a metal polish and your towel turns black it is uncoated. If it doesn't turn black it is clear coated. That is how I determine what to use.
 
So lets say they don't have coating....can I still use it?



I thought this is mild stuff....Is there poorboy rep here?



Well dust come right off....but still a pain cuz I have to wipe it....and then my MF gets dirty so i'd have to wash it.....

You know BMW and MB have enormous amount of dust haha



Spray and rinse sounds good...but on the bottle it says do a test on uncoated and highly polish wheels.....I was like ***...



gmblack - Did you dilute before you use?

why would it eat through the paint....shouldn't washing it with soapy water neutralize the acid affect?

I emailed PB and got a fast reply



PB said I should test the wheel.

So my question is how do I do it? It seems like you are talking about liquid metal polish

However, the only metal polish I have is wadding Polish...

So I tear off a piece of wadding rob it on the wheel...then wipe off with towel

If it's black then it's not coated? if it is then it is coated?....
 
wadding polish has a chemical cleaner. if the wadding turns black you are rubbing pure metal not clear coat. If you are rubbing metal be more cautious with your chemical wheel cleaners.
