warning! about Armor All wheel cleaner
 

i used armor all wheel cleaner on my wheels on my car...sprayed it on...housed it off...then about 3 months later one of the valve stems blew the center out of it...took i took the wheel to the goodyear place...had it replaced...then about 3 weeks later...2 more did the same...i thought it was odd..soo i had those two and the last and final "old" valve stem replaced....i thought maybe the place just got a bad batch of valve stems at the time i got new tires...until 4 months later the valve stems did the exact same thing a seperate time....

i finally asked the guy if this is a common thing with these wheels....and he asked if i had used wheel cleaner....and i told him i had...and he said that Mainly the armor all brand would eat the glue that holds the center of the valve stem in and soften the rubber around it & cause them to blow the center of it out...below is a picture of one of the centers that blew out of my wheel...


just a heads up for anyone out there using it

Best way to stay safe, is using nothing at all besides water, car wash soap, and elbow grease. https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif
