Now Bob you're killin' me here!
I've used corn (from a can), and doughballs, but burlap and WD-40 is a new one for sure!

Sorry to hijack...
I use barebones and have always had good results. Just curious for cleaning and agitation what's the norm? My process to follow:
Pressure wash 60* nozzle to remove any large stuck on particles. Good off for tar adhered to *plastic* liners agitate with 20" "soft"/flared brush again on plastic liners rinse with pressure and dress.
*metal* painted fender liners high pressure rinse down remove particles bare bones or for stubborn tar use trix. Agitate with 28/20" bores hair brush high pressure rinse.
Sound up to par with y'all's process? Faster way? Better way? Am I doing it the wrong way haha
Thanks everyone
Bare bones, trix, and cg apc citrus are all items I use dep on what needs to be cleaned/removed.

-My Grandpa’s the one that taught me that, even though catfish would eat about anything going,
fish were kinda sensitive to: 'little boy smells' that came from:
Wallering about in the dirt, pickin’ boogers, not being: "the best of aim" down at the outhouse, etc…
-And that WD-40 helped cover-up 'those aromas' when sprayed on 'burlap-lures', as it were.
Now…I knew, back then, of WD-40’s abilities on freeing-up rusted bolts&nuts on farm equipment
and Grandpa’s old jalopy…But it wasn’t until I’d moved to the big city and attended College that I
found out more about WD-40…Even how it helped me as a kid in regards to catfishing.
-Suffice it to say that I learned WD-40 has an abundance of alkanes (Hydrocarbons with the formulas: CxH2x+2n).
I discovered that this alkane-information was useful in at least two "fishing-ways" (I & II);
and, at least one "Collegiate-way" (III)...As follows:
I.)
Ever tie a cricket, grasshopper, stinkbug, or other creepy-crawler on a fish hook?
Well…Many alkanes are naturally produced by living creatures. One of those naturally occurring alkanes found
in WD-40 is: Undecane...part of the pheromone trail left by cockroaches.
-No wonder WD-40 drove the catfish into a froth!!
II.)
-Another alkane in WD-40 is: Nonane.
-Nonane-molecules’ hydrogen atoms "don’t hold a charge" (can’t connect/bond to H20, essentially meaning water-repellant).
-That’s how the WD-40’ed piece-of-burlap stayed ‘dry-enough’ to hide the fishhook from the Big Cats.
-And…Afterall…WD-40 stands for water displacement, 40th attempt.
III.)
Since WD-40 is packed full of "mineral oil"…It wasn’t too big of a stretch for us seeking: "Higher-education"…

Re: What to use to refinish wheel wells?
If your talking about just "dressing" your wheel well then I vote for CG BareBones, Sonus, Trim & motor Kote.
If you truly want to re-finish them then look into Wurth High Build UnderBody UnderSeal.

Another option that I used was roll on bed liner.
