Default Never clean your wheels again???

Has anyone ever used this stuff? My cynical brain screams "NOT!" but I'm tempted to at least try it and see.<ul><li><a href="http://pitstopinternational.com/wheelshield.htm">Wheelshield</a></li></ul>

Default Seems unlikely to work...

particularly in the marketing of the product.

* Never scrub or polish your wheels again.
* Total protection from brake dust, road tar, rust, corrosion and winter chemicals (mag chloride).
* Surface shine always protected.
* Repels 60% of all brake dust.
* All dust and dirt wipe off with damp cloth.
* One application lasts all year.

How can it provide "total protection from brake dust" and yet only "repel 60% of all brake dust"? Smells like a gimmick.

Default I can wipe dirt and dust now with a damp cloth without using any product...

I'm a bit skeptical, especially with the tremendous amount of brake dust on the front wheels with these cars..

Default

Doesn't seem much different than waxing your wheels. IMO

Default can't answer phone using bluetooth

just got a Motorola C9, but now with an incoming call, I cannot answer the call from my steering wheel. Options are: Replace call (which transfers directly into voice mail) or end call, not Answer Call. this happened as soon as I utilized internet options on my Motorola phone. I can dial From the the Audi, just can't answer from the Audi.
