lol, well I couldn't just go out and buy something right then. Baby was napping and I DO NOT trust the Burban enough to drive somewhere... plus no carseat.

But where do you buy Nevr-dull?

Wow... did you have to scrub or just spray on, let sit and wash off?

I may have to try that with the baked on dust on my stockers.

I sprayed and scrubbed off about 5 minutes later. But the second time I sprayed, let sit for 30-45 minutes, then had to gently to mildly scrub with the sponge and coarse wool tangle thingy. The areas where it wasn't baked on as thick I pretty much just rubbed off with the sponge.

I did find out the second time that if I sprayed a little water on it before scrubbing, it worked better

So oven cleaner for a bit, spray a little water, scrub a bit, rinse, dry, marvel at the new cleanliness? Seems easy enough even for me to do. Perhaps I'll try it... the results you posted speak for themselves, they look really nice!

Way easier than using Dawn and then scrubbing the ISH out of it lol. My hand started hurting and I was sitting on the wet asphalt...

Wet asphalt stinks... I did that when I was scrubbing underneath of my truck trying to get all traces of offroading off before it went back to the trans guy.

Looks pretty good!

I believe that Walmart has the Nevr-dull stuff. I picked it up at my local NAPA. Was the last one they had and it was covered with dust. Must be not too many people use it anymore, but it works GREAT! It comes in a little metal can and looks like cotton *****. It's good stuff though. Takes rust off of chrome too!

Thanks! Now if only I could figure out what kind of rims these are... And without taking the rim off and cleaning the back I'm not sure if I can figure it out...





And here's what the backs look like. Oven Cleaner has been sprayed will update

Oh and yes... that is the Chrome peeling off... :|

Clicky to make bigger

Passenger side. Sprayed oven cleaner, 45 minutes later WIPED off with damp sponge then took an old toothbrush and sprayed the Dawn and Water in that spray bottle and got into the tighter areas. I'm gonna do one more Dawn and Water on both then dry and start on the back two, which aren't NEAR as bad as the front.
