Old product, new use part II

[hook]

Recently, I've posted (HERE)) about using up about 1/3 of a bottle of Klasse Sealant Glaze that's been sitting on my shelf doing nothing, by diluting it to a 10% solution and spraying it on my wheels whenever I clean them.

It's working really, really well. Once the wheel is clean, I just mist the wheel and wipe it off - goes on and comes off very easily.

Yesterday, I had about a day's worth of brakedust on the wheels and decided to make a video of how they rinse right off with just water. Yes, I know this is not a baked-on, hard core buildup of brake dust. But it does demonstrate pretty well how easily the dust rinses off. I figure using up a product I likely wouldn't use anymore was better than buying something. definitely has been worth the experiement.

Once I take a longer trip will do this again with a worse buildup. The weather has just been so nice that the wheels and whole car have just been really, really clean, even though I've been driving some back windy roads in an *ahem* spirited manner...

Yep, now after 2 weeks of treating them after they're clean, they pretty much spray off with plain old water and the regular hose. There is still a very very thin film of dust left that doesn't show much in the video (you can see a bit of the dust drip away after I wipe it with my finger tyhe second time) but it is usually so minor that I ignore it and just make sure I use a "wheel" designated towel when I dry them and spray the next layer of Diluted SG on...
