Yes, I did. I had that thread deleted by the NSA due to overwhelming stupid questions about the toxicity of tire foam,




Yes, it will collect some dust. However, the point of the tire foam is to penetrate the embedded mud, dirt stains, etc, and return the surface to a much cleaner condition (if not like new).




The below comments are not directed at hinrichs, the OP, anyone quoted above, or any slightly mentally handicapped, albino, militant Eco-terrorist who may be reading this post. Everyone else, I'm mostly directing both barrels of 00 buck shot right in your face. Thank you in advance for your understanding:

First- how I maintain my jeep's finish IS NOT HOW I MAINTAIN ANY OF MY OTHER VEHICLES (yes, I am yelling).

Second- its a damn jeep, and if you are utilizing it as the immortal gods of off roading have intended them to be used, it will get dirty, scratch and occasionally bent and broken. So either accept this, or just keep pretending you really are wheeling your jeep exceptionally hard and keep on living life in denial. YOLO.....holla!

Three- even though its a jeep, it will see some wear and tear, and it could get a few permanent trail scars.....does not mean it still can't look really freaking awesome between the trail runs that get it dirty. Because we all want our jeeps looking nice when we are doing what wenormally do in our rigs, and for what is truly the real reason we bought them; see this link- http://wayalife.com/showthread.php?11388-Nothing-but-Malls-and-Parking-Lots

Four- wash your jeep however you want- pressure washer, garden hose, gas station drive through, student/school fund raiser next to the fast food joint that uses two under age bikini clad girls to lure you in because they're holding a neon colored sign yelling something stupid, whatever...... After the jeep is washed, try to ALWAYS use a quick spray on/wipe off detailer wax like MacGuiars Ultimate Quick Detailer for the painted surfaces. Now for the tire foam tips pertaining to the underside of the jeep, frame rails, axles, wheel wells-

- never coat or soak bushings, seals or electrical components/junctions/connectors with tire foam. A little overspray will not hurt.
- hopefully you tried to clean the affected stained, dirty areas with decent pressure and there is not huge chunks or accumulations of dried on mud or gunk. If so, removed with brush or scraping, or even re-pressure wash
- for the identified areas that need de-staining (possibly an actual word), apply about the same amount of tire foam you would apply to tires
- for heavily stained areas, hit it with a little bit heavier coating, let soak overnight and re-inspect in the morning
- if stains still exist, try another coating.
- once you achieve the results you can live with, you can probably hit frame rails, wheel wells, axle tubes, differentials about every other wash.
- the underbody can actually take a few cans of tire foam to achieve decent clean results. However, it will not need to be done as often.
- dust collecting, yes it will accumulate a light coating of dust. But it's in areas that are typically not noticed by most people. Most importantly what that dust is collecting on is a thin, greasy, protective film that soaks the metal surfaces and makes it difficult to stain in the future.

I will attach some photos in a minute. I'm flying in a 737 and posted this response on the HTML site and need to switch to the Wayalife App. Please occupy yourself with a word puzzle or maybe do some coloring while I look thru some photos ...

I'm back....how was the puzzle? Did you finish? Or did you color something really fancy? Did you stay between the lines? Be honest....


Here are some photos I have posted so many times, I actually want to get rid of them from my albums, so I can't share them anymore.

From the 2012 JKX, trust me and ask anyone on the forum here that was a part of it, our rigs were so much worse in person. This took three days of really intense detailing, but EVOJEEP was as good as it was before the JKX once I finished.

Do you wash the rest of the tire foam off after letting it sit or just leave it? And what brand do you recommend. I tried this method but found it left drips of oily shine all along my frame and inner fenders.

Thanks,

I wipe it off with a towel.

You can use tire foam on everything. Fenders, door handles, bumpers. I spray it on and wipe it off the next morning and it shines like a babies ass.

I heard that PETA and the EPA now fall under DHS. Good thing you deleted it! :whew:

I spray it on and leave it, just like you would on your tires. I just buy regular old Armor All tire foam in a can. Just the regular stuff, no super deep, extra gloss stuff.
