How are those wheels "better than factory condition"? I agree they look brand new. The wheels looked relatively clean for 6 months of not being cleaned. Did you encounter any tar spots? I dont see...

any insight on how the collinite and fuzion compare in durability? Do most users layer collinite on top of a cured sealant?
