Yep, thats what mine look like. When the wheel weights get removed for balancing the coating/paint (Whatever that is) comes off with them. Then when you scrub them with a brush the rest just peels...
Have you already tried cleaning it and what products have you used? There are many leather cleaners available and one of my favorites is from Griot's Garage, which can be found here. Search
For the size/room during the time frame I bought mine, No. Today, there are many more offerings and Ford has done a good job with the newer expedition/navigator. To answer your question, I'm...
Cheap/shoddy materials. Little things that break that are expensive to replace, etc. E.G. Exterior window moldings fade and are cheap plastic, interior uses cheap materials, and of course the...
Not mine, but found this online. I guess you can say they use a cheap spray can type paint over the cast aluminum, cause it will peel off in a year or two after ownership. Its not a...
I own a 2014 Escalade, sticker was 84k. Unfinished bare aluminum barrels. I'll go out and take a pic later. Maybe they recently changed their supplier... However, I wouldn't buy another after this...
Third law of motion? I was thinking more on the lines of the second law, but I could be wrong. Anyway, they do claim a pencil hardness rather than Mohs, which is a bit misleading and indeed doesn't...
Cast aluminum products under the hood are a pain to clean and even worse if you want to keep them brightened, per say. Dirt and filth over time cause a darkening effect to the metal. I've found the...
My 8hp metro is a must have for me. It will get water out of every nook and cranny that you'll never remove with a regular leaf blower or towel. Nothing is worse than trying to polish and or apply...
Why not just keep the same one if you're having good luck? IMO, if you'd like to offer a more expensive option, look into the pro versions, such as Carpro or something alike?
Isn't that more 'trim specific'? I've used Dlux on wheels and calipers with lackluster results in my experience. McKee's makes one specifically for wheels, but I have yet to use it.
On top of being hammered with less than 1k miles, clear with around 1.2mils. That would be enough to really pee me off if it was mine. I'm not sure If I'd buy a used vehicle without measuring paint...
Hard to tell from the pics, but it might be clear overspray from a sloppy body shop. I've seen it many times before. Can you feel the 'dots' when you run your hand over it?
Another product recommendation for an engine dressing is Sonus Motorkote. This is probably the best one I've encountered for looks and longevity as long as follow the instructions. My next favorite...
Yes, just don't try to force the blade in the glass like a gorilla and you should be good. ;) You could try using a soapy-watery solution to help glide it along.
