Wheel wells aren't black

Stang_Crazy · 06-30-2002, 04:21 PM

My wheel wells are starting to fade and I need something that will keep them nice and black. Anyone know of any products that are made to keep black wheel wells black??

I've heard of people using rhino liner or similar products used for truck beds in their wheel wells. Suposedly this works well, but I've never seen it with my own eyes.
Good Luck,

The bedliner material would be the best for a long term fix but is probably a little pricey. It will evenually need a little "freshening" back to black after awhile anyway. If you don't have the cash for that, try using some foaming tire shine on them. I used to use that but it dosn't last too long.

The best stuff I have found is the detailing spray from the CD-2 engine cleaning kit. It lasts a long time, even after driving in the rain several times.

Hope it helps.

Why not just do like I've done. Go to your local hardware store, and pick up some paint.
I prefer the stuff in a can as opposed to spray paint because it's easier to control, and you don't have to worry about it running.
