Poorboy’s wheel sealer test – First Impression:
Came in a small sample container, so no comments on packaging, directions, etc..
It has a purple color, smells like grape bubble yum, and is a bit thicker than EX-P.
It’s basically a wipe on, let haze, wipe off product.
How does it look: I have a white Cadillac CTS, with polished aluminium wheels (which have a fairly dull look)
After 1 coat, not much difference in the appearance. 2 coats, and my aluminium wheels had a noticeably improved clear & bright appearance and felt slick.
Performance: Here’s where this product SHINES!
My CTS is a daily driver. I live in Delaware, and commute to Philadelphia. About a 50mile commute each way. Last week was miserable. It rained nearly every day. I could not believe that after 1 round trip in the rain & muck (100 miles), I had no build up of brake dust & orange dirt stains on the wheels. I wish the rest of the car looked so good. Day2, it rained again all day again –same results, the wheels looked good! After the second day I washed the car. The wheels were in good shape, but the tires, wells, and paint were getting grimy and making me twitch Wednesday I lucked out and missed the rain, but it was back again on Thursday and Friday.
Clean up: VERY easy. There was virtually no build up on the rims. Auto soap, water, sponge and wheel brush did the trick. I usually have to use a wheel cleaner, but not this time.
Product used before: AIO.
Rating 1-10, 10 being the best.
Appearance: After 1 coat a 4, after 2 coats an 8
Protection (Ability to repel dirt and brake dust): 10 out of 10. I’ve NEVER used a miracle product like this. -Simply fantastic stuff if you’re like me and hate scrubbing the wheels after a few days of rain.
Durability: So far, so good. I’d like to wait a month to 6 weeks before commenting on this aspect, but so far so good!

Not a polished rim though. How would this stuff work?
