Yup great product but it does not seem to really dry on your wheels. It prevents most anything from sticking to your wheels and dust is off with water spray but do not wipe the water that stays on the wheel surface. The armor all gets wiped off too.

If you want some dust free pads that work very well on the street and don't eat into your rotors I can get you some. PM me with what car you have and I will get you pricing on some of the pads. They will almost totally eliminate the brake dust problem, they are quint and they bite quickly and have great pedal modulation.

Whatever solution you use it's best to stay on top of this because once that stuff starts to accumulate on the wheels it is that much harder to clean in the future. Ever since Porsche went to a silver painted wheel they went with silver painted insides of the wheels, too and it's very hard to keep that are looking good without a lot of work. I use Harly's wax after thoroughly cleaning my wheels. It helps to shed any dust I might generate.

A trick I learned recently is using a Spray wax to wipe the wheels down after every drive. The wheel surface has become very slick and it has made cleaning much easier.

I use chemical guys wheel wax and when it starts to look dirty I take it to the wash it yourself car wash places here to spray it down (illegal to wash your car at home in vegas) and dry off with a microfiber towel. I hope it lasts at least a couple of months.
