Armor All problem
I just bought my Ivory Pearl G a couple days ago, they detialed it and everything for me before i took it, but i have one problem. I noticed yesterday on both wheel wheels in the front and a little on the doors that there are yellow stains. I think it might be from the armor all they put on, and it doesnt even come off. I know i can take it off using other products, and the guy at the dealer said theyd take it out, but i was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue, because i dont want my paint getting stained because of tire shine use.

yellowish tint from armor all

In the owners maual it says not to use any of these products as it will turn the painted parts yellowish.
I have had this problem there is no soultion for it.
When they do your wheels have them wipe of any excess.
There is nothing to get it off(I have a friend who runs body shop & he told me the same thing)
Our paint on the ivory peral is 3 stage & very sensative to chemicals in tire shine.

I had the same problem when I first got my car. It was from the tire product that the dealership used. The yellow stains eventually came off, but it took a while. You won't be able to take it off in just one day. I just washed my car regularly once a week, and it came off in a couple of weeks. The UV light from the sun also helps break it down.

Sounds like the tire gel slinged off while you drove because they put too much on it and didn't wipe it down. I would try alcohol wipedown, claybar, stoners tarminator, goo gone, or polishing.....

well i went in today, they couldnt get it off. They said it would have to go to the infiniti body shop, if they cant fix it, with my permission they will repaint it. I dont want them to repaint it because i dont think theyll match it. If i had known this i wouldve just bought the red one or black and not have worried about this.

I use a gel for tire shine.. works great with no slinging and stays on great.. also .. use detailed image for interior detailing... their aerospace protectant spray is the best! I hate slimy greasy armor all...
