Good evening,
I jacked up my car today and took all four alloys off to do a properly clean the wheel arches and also give my alloys some tlc...
I had some old glue residual from previous wheel weights on my alloys, which i tried to remove with Gtechik W7 Glue and Tar remover. My alloys are powder coated black..
Applied the product, let it soak in for 5mins and then rinse off. However it left white streak marks. tried to get them off by applying more ...now i got a nasty film all over my alloys, it looks like the glue and tar remover just dried over
it's very stick, feels like a film of glue, and i tried to scratch it off with plastic razor blades, however no chance. spoke to a detailer who suggest using a low abrasive polish.
anyone come across this? did the tar and glue remover react with the alloys?
any help or guidance is much appreciated!
thanks
