- On my bottle it states not to get on Aluminum.
- MSDS sheet http://www.epc.shell.com/Docs/GSAP_msds_00111271.PDF There is nothing in it that will do you any good and the acetone is not good for the clear coat.
- I used to put Rejex on my polished Caddy rims. Nothing would stick to it. I would imagine it would work well on big rims, too.
- I used Rain X on and 85 Mercury headlights. It turned them gray blue and cloudy. Eventually they got clearer over a year.
Aluminum wheels, or most of them are clear coated. A plastic paint.
I wouldn't do it. I didn't know it had acetone in it, and because, of that I definately wouldn't do it. - I use Rejex on everything. Coach, windows, wheels (not the tires), everything.
- I polish them and spray with clear laquer. Lasts about a year of heavy driving.

I know what the OP was talking about. I made my comment. Did you correct the others that made a comment about Rejex :?
