I used that on my tailpipes on the stang. Wonder if NevrDull would work on those fo-tailpipe ends on modern cars (like a RAV4, etc)? Too volitile? I've been using Brake Buster on them, but I still have some NevrDull.

Re: Wheel Wednesday!
It depends on the tailpipe tips. It works amazing on my '22 BRZ's OEM exhaust tips. It worked great on the OEM M-Sport exhaust mounted to the 435 I owned a couple of years ago as well. However, it didn't seem to put a dent in the stainless tips I had on my GTI which required a little Mother's metal polish.
When it comes to exhaust tips, I'll start with a good cleaner, then move up to NevrDull and then go to a polish if nothing else works.

Re: Wheel Wednesday!
If you are dealing with carbon staining on exhaust tips, Tarminator works wonders in that situation. Not sure where I came across that tip, but it certainly works well.

Re: Wheel Wednesday!
The original FJ rims have been stacked in a corner of the garage since I bought the black steelies two and a half years ago, I've been toying with the idea of swapping them back on, but first I should tidy them up and check their condition. I wiped the face down before storing them, but the barrels needed some work. I used both NV Purge and Bowden's Wheely Clean, as a comparison, Wheely Clean was better, but not by much. I sprayed the barrels 2 or 3 times each, scrubbed with my big yellow wheel brush between each, and rinsed, I kept going till they stopped bleeding. Then I did the face and barrel with the bucket of Mother's California Gold I had left over from cleaning my golf clubs last week. They came up ok, only a few blemishes that wouldn't come off. All the tyres are holding between 21 and 22 psi, even the one I plugged a hole in 3 years ago, they would have had about 35psi when I took them off.

Re: Wheel Wednesday!
I gave the wheels on the Qashqai a clean with ONR, the light rain we had yesterday left "brake dust spots" on the wheels, so I guess there's still some good protection on them.
