Default Don't use Black Magic tire products!

Well, had to learn the hard way about using a product I don't usually use. For many, many years I have gone the lazy route and used Armorall tire foam, never ever had one problem out of it. But, I got a coupon for Black Magic tire products so I thought I'd give their tire foam a shot. Worst MISTAKE ever!!!!! It ran down onto my wheels and has streaked the hell out of them. The streaks are not coming off either. Besides that the finish on the tires was straight up trash. For the sake of you aluminum wheels stay away from this trash called Black Magic. From now on I'm sticking with Armorall, should have known better.

Nope, their tire foam. It's an aerosol applied product. Supposed to be just like the Armorall foam, but I've never had Armorall mess up my wheels. I just hope I can fix them.

Huh. I've used it several times with my stocks with no problems. Try some cleaner wax. That should fix it.
