  • Removing "possible" NXT INSANE SHINE

    Folks I did the truck up yesterday and and put on a fresh coat of #20 and also applied NXT Insane Shine to the tires.

    Usually I don't get any sling off of it because I apply with an applicator. But last night it rained and I had to drive in the rain this morning to return home.

    I just got finished Speed Detailing the whole truck and noticed what "appeared" to be a small amount of sling from the IS. The speed detailer was able to remove the sling OK but if I look very close, I can see a slight amount of staining left over. My paint is white so it is noticable.

    Has anyone else noted this and if so, what can I do to get rid of these little stains? I'd really hate to use anything that is going to remove much wax as I just got finished with the whole 5 step process and this was my 2nd coat of wax. I suspect the sun will bleach these out a tad and they will fade out after a couple washes and Spped Details but I'd like to be able to come up with a safe, effective means of more immediate removal.

    I should have tried to ge them off quicker but it was raining when I got home so I blew it off. Then of course, after I woke up today and looked oputside the sun was bright and likely helped to bake it some of the sling.

    I am going to top the #20 with #21 here soon, hopefully that might be a little more resilant to this staining. I still plan on using the Insane Shine no matter what as I like it but I need to come up with a maintenance plan for this issue.

    If you have a bottle of 50/50 alcohol/water mix around, give that a try. Another option would be to attack the problem like hard water spotting and mix a little distilled white vinegar with your wash water and give the lower panels another wash. If worse comes to worse, try scratchx in the isolated areas and re-wax.

      Here's what's happening, the tire dressing is acting like a carrying-agent for the depleted antiozonants that are on the surface of your tires, (the brown stuff), thus transferring this to the finish and trim on your car when it slings off if you don’t remove the excess before driving.

      It's actually these antiozonants that have turned brown that have stained your trim, and not the tire dressing. This staining effect could take place with anybody's tire dressing. The dressing is just acting to transfer the depleted brown antiozonant to your vehicle’s finish and trim.

      Does that make sense?

      Also, exposure to sunlight over the course of a few weeks will hopefully make the stain disappear.

        Thanks guys,
        Mike you logic sounds solid. I like the IS and am not giving up on it.

        These stains are barely visable. Other folks would likely not catch it. I likely would not have if I did not have to wipe to little drop of stuff off from over top of it.

        I am hgoing to watch it and see how long it takes to go away. If I am uncomfortable with how long they are there, I may go aafter it using the means provided in this thread. They are definately not severe enough to go after aggressively. I am going to let them ride and watch them.
