Hey guys, need all you help Please, I tried to clean my tires with the Eagle One tire cleaner, unfortunately I drop one spot on the lip of my wheel, I removed them immediately, but that white cloudy haze spot still stick on the lip, any advice what should I do to get them remove.
I don't know what kind of finish or clear coat on my wheels, the wheels I have is call: Yokohama Super Advan Ver.2

 

Have you tried dawn dish washing soap? I wouldn't hurt.

 

First question is which wheel cleaner did you use?
Was teh wheel cool when you sprayed it with cleaner?

If you used All Wheel and Tire cleaner (which is recommended) and the wheel was cool (see AWT cleaner below) then here are some things to do...


If your wheels have a polished lip you have taken off the polish and left the lip dull. Use metal polish like this....

and that will bring the polish back into your wheel. The wheel cleaner you used stripped what polish was left... so you'll repeat this process each time you clean your wheels with that cleaner

If you wheel lip was clearcoat or chrome then use some wadding polish instead of rouge polish to clean the wheel....like


The wadding polish is a solvent based polish rather than a rouge or wax polish... it should clean the dull area and get you back to a shine...


hope this helps....

 

My car was completely cold from the time that I'm pull her out of my garage, I used the Eagle One All wheel & tire cleaner, I used the same one from the first picture that you list, the instruction said use on the dry and cool tire, so I leave my car completely dry, spray them only on the tire, I don't know how they felt or drop that cleaner white bubble on the lip, I tried to get them by raise them with very hard water, but that **** stick on like super glue.

 

Make it's not clear coated, and if so absolutely no metal polish. That is not good for clearcoats.

 

The wheels has little clear coat on it, and I just tried the nano polish (2 picture), yes this thing took away the white spot, but they also took away the top layer of the lip (clear coat), now the lip show up 2 different color, one is regular and one is very shine metal, I really don't know what to do next, PLEASE HELP!!!

so what you are saying is that the part of the lip that had the spotting is now "SUPER shiney" and the rest is just "Normal shine"...

if so... get to work and polish the rest of that lip out...

The NANO polish is clearcoat safe and isn't abrasive enough to tear away at the layer of clear coat... hope this helps

 

By lookin at the super shiny spot, every body can tell that super shiny spot is a damage spot, and by touching them, it feel rough, like crack or missing something, is anyway bring them back to normal, sand them down smooth maybe!!!!!!!

 

What is WET SAND???

 

DO NOT WET SAND YOUR WHEELS!!!!!!

Wet sanding is using a silicon carbide paper rather than the traditional Aluminum oxide paper (what you would use on wood) and wetting the surface and soaking the paper to reduce clogging and extend abrasive life while sanding the surface smooth rather than scratching into it.

Wet sanding is a last resort... and there are better alternatives to taking clear coat off wheels...

Please take some pics of the wheel so we can see what you're dealing with...
How old are the wheels?
What cleaners haev you used on them?
How often have you cleaned them?
Do you use the wheels year round?in winter weather?

 

I put the wheels on about a month and is first time clean them with car soap and water.

 

He's right, you can get some paint remover at your automotive paint store, it removes it safely, then polish but this will be an ongoing thing but it'll look nice.
