i bought it when i first bought my new wheels, worked great on the oxidation and chipping clear.

 

ya it was your rims that makes me want to try it out lol

 

Yea, I have the red one. Use it on the Al bed caps, wheels, front and rear bumpers for all of our vehicles...

 

Yeah, I got the red ones, the big one and the little one. got 'em as xmas stocking stuffers from my ex the last year we were still married.

They kinda got a bit tattered, but I still got 'em. They work well, but I found a little shop at my local flea market run by this nice chinese couple who sell all kinds of tools and such, kinda the same cheap sh*t you'd find at Harbor Freight.
Well they have a HUGE assortment of cloth and lamb wool ones to fit on a drill. All kinds of shapes and sizes that run anywhere from .50 cents for the little round and cone ones that are perfect for the nooks and crannies of your wheels to about 5" diameter ones for all of $2.00.
So I stock up on a few of those every now and then and use them. I find them to be more durable than the red ball...

 

I have a red one out at the machine shed, I have used it to clean the after market chrome 20"s on my moms ford escape limited before she sold it. It worked great. I wish i still had pictures of it. But yeah it gets all that brake dust and other gunk out really well.

 

i used it today , kinda didnt last long , so i think it was a waste of 25 bucks. i bought some armal wheel protectant , stff is awesome !!

 

... Didn't last long? I've been using the same one for the last three years! You aren't supposed to spin it as fast as the drill will go or apply a lot of pressure.

 

lol, common mistake of the operator its okay. We all make mistakes Laramie... Next time be easy with her haha.

 

lol whoops
