The only downside of this stuff I could see is that if not allowed to cure completely before exposure to road salt, etc. its tackiness could actually attract and hold the salt, etc. to the wheels and nuts. Curing seems to take a good amount of time, especially in the cold. I have bare steelies and wish I had done this a few weeks ago.
While I agree.. I like the results.. so I will continue.
I usually spray them lightly 2x then put the covers on after a couple hours if im not in a rush.
my wheel covers are solid with no slots so they keep most of the direct road spray off.
I got my boeshield t-9 from sears it comes in a combo pack with a small bottle of evaporust and was quite pricy $17 IIRC
