Re: De Lamination or Scuff Marks?
I'm going with scuff marks. I've used the BL tire clear coat and never seen that. Judging by the chips out of the rims, parking is not a strong suit.

To say the least.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

Also, applying a coating to brand new tires is not recommended, you should clean them weekly for a handful of weeks and don't dress the tires. Only after about a month and a half and 5 or 6 good cleaning you coat. This is to allow the mold release substance to be completely removed from the tires before you put something you want to bond well to it.
Roger that. I appreciate the info for sure brother! I was eager to give the PBL Tire Clear Coat a second go. As soon as I heard they were putting new tires on it I new this was my opportunity. I gave the guy the PBL Tire Clear coat as a complimentary service.

The damage goes way up the wheel. Looks like the owner side-swiped a really tall curb or short barrier.
EDIT: I took a look at the pictures again. As if all the wheel damage isn't enough, if you look at the marks in the last two pictures, they are pretty clearly made by something scraping the surface of the tire. You can see very uniform, straight, lines caused by the texture of surface that caused all the damage. No way that is coating delamination or flaking off.
Great detective work!

I agree brother. Maybe I should have charged for the tire coating. This may have saved a visit to the eye doctor. Oh well, every gift I give i give with love. Nice job to yourself and Yancy on the latest training video. I really enjoyed it. Also, whats Yancy's name here on the forum? I'd like to keep an eye out for him.
