Well here is my experience...

Since I bought the car I have been trying to get a set of stock wheel covers on it, I took the KO's off and put Cragars on for a couple years, today I have completed my back to the future experience ...

I dug up a set of 15 year old white walls and the stripes were beyond nasty, I tried everything to get them clean, yes I made them better but not better enough. Tried 3-4 cleaners including totally awesome, every scrubber I could lay my hands on even used lacquer thinner...

Nothing did the job, then I....spent 5 min a tire with a DF-A and some 180 grit and polished them with 400 grit.

Dirty

discolored

% Min with a sander

1966 all over again...

I think the OP made his point, which was that he didnt like a certain cleaner.

These other recent posts, not really related, would go well in one of the current white wall tire threads.
