Never thought of that. I use tire foam on mine. Used Mop & Glo on my boots in the army, way back when!

It should work great and it cam be easily removed with soap and water. Soldiers have been using itr for years on leather products and when they wore helmet liners (old Soldiers remember those).

With so many good products developed for just such an application why use a product developed for your wife to mop on her vynal floors?

Try Endurance or Back To Black: I'm sure you will be well pleased with the outcome.

You use tire foam on your wheel wells???

I think the subject got a bit misconstrued... er.. off-track.

Duesouth,
Why do you want to put anything on your wheel wells???
