You probably are the only one.

The number one reason that I bought my Bronco was to go get it dirty. My sidewalls are as likely to look like the ones below as to ever be sparkly clean.

I haven’t use the SOS pads on the Bronco in the 15 months I’ve owned it, I’m not a prude with respect to a well soiled Bronco.

The SOS pads seem to scrub off the brake dust buildup on the tires. On relatively clean tires the blue soap becomes a dark brown paste after some scrubbing.

Yeah, I get it and I'm fine with it normally but, there's a Bronco meet / show that it will be in so I'd like it clean for the ladies...😎

If I went to such a meet, I think I would go find some good mud right before and see how muddy I could get it before showing up. You know, to prove it's not a mall crawler. ;)

Hey, i checked the link. Did you see this and have you had any issues?

NOTE: Do not allow product to contact magnesium or aluminum wheels, painted or glass surfaces, eyewear, fabric and non-rubber items. Permanent damage can occur. USE ONLY AS PER LABEL DIRECTIONS.
I've used it on vehicles with aluminum wheels since the 80s. I spray it on, brush the tire, then rinse. I don't let it sit for long and have always been careful about overspray. I hadn't had any issues. I don't use it every wash. Just when the tires look like they need it

I picked up some brake buster today. The directions say to spot test first. I have Sasquatch wheels. I assume that it’s ok to use this stuff on those wheels. Pan the Organizer says it’s safe. Have you heard of any issues with brake buster on wheel surfaces?

I also use this on my SAS wheels spraying the face and the barrel of the rim using a soft wheel brush and just rise it off. It's a non acid cleaner and is safe to use on all painted wheels. It's a good product
