can I spray this onto the wheel wells of a car effectively without taking off the wheels? if not, will just jacking up the car give me good access? I drive a 2006 Subaru impreza wrx. I don't think car is THAT much lower than a standard compact car....

I sprayed the wheel wells on my Ford Sport Trac and got very nice results. I did take the wheels off and masked the body near the wheel wells. This stuff will make mess due to overspray if you don't take the time to do it right. You will spend a lot more time cleaning up the overspray than you will taking the wheels off. Good luck!!

Yes, use the green tip and turn down the pressure. My car really looks cleans, you have to make sure you're the proper distance from the car and don't stay in the same spot for a long period of time. I'm very please with it cleans my car and truck. I even cleaned my neighbor cars.

About as effective as any other good quality nozzle. In other words....look into a pressure washer my friend.I like the "pam" suggestion though...along that line I wonder if rainx would bond to the car well enough to work without the buttery scent ;)

yes, it's designed to do that. when using, it almost appears not to be moving at all; however, it is doing it's job. If you are not getting results you want, try a more aggressive grit. I've had to go as high as 240 grit on badly pitted headlights.

You should be fine spraying it on plastic. I sprayed my whole car with it actually! I would recommend cleaning the spray surface well, and sanding it with a heavy grit sandpaper to help the product adhere.

I bought it to suck the oil out of car as oil pan bolt can't be removed. My 2006 Chrysler has lots of problems, but I still need to change the oil. I could not get the hose to go down in my oil pan far enough. I wound up removing the oil filter and turning the ignition 4-5 times to blow out 3-4 quarts and replace with new filter and enough oil. I have done this adequately 3 times. I have the pump for other stuff......peterc

It can be applied by spy, maybe a brush, dipping works great! Now they are using it to spray on wheels, truck bumpers, bottom of cars etc. It is removable by peeling it off.

This power washer like many could strip paint off a variety of surfaces. But it's up to the user to take car so that doesn't happen. Choosing the correct spray tip and keeping the tip at the correct distance away from the surface your spraying so damage will not occur.

Are you able to safely place the jack squarely under a main frame or axle? Since the cord that comes with this unit is 10' in length, it should be easy to place the jack under any wheel lift point. Otherwise, you may need a RoadPro RP-203EC 12V 12' Extension Cord with Cigarette Lighter Plug or similar extension cord to allow more room to move around.Simple answer = it should work for almost any vehicle one could consider, up to it's lift max capacity.

Incidental contact with gasoline will not be a problem. As for heat, well how hot is hot? I'm sure you could melt it/burn it with Propane or MAPP gas, if you're thinking of using on engine parts things other than exhaust manifolds should be fine. As always proper surface prep is key.

shouldn't affect high gear. should just engage and disengage 4 wheel drive. The vehicle I repaired was stuck in 4 wd and would not come out, but still acted normal on the highway until you made a sharp turn into a driveway or something of that nature

I wouldn't. You would need to cover the wheel with many pieces and when the wheel gets hot it will start coming off. Try spray plastidip instead. Look it up on google.

I only know this product and it's fabulous. But I understand....it gets painful to spray an decent sized area with this method. You could empty it into a spray tank and use it that way. I wouldn't mix anything with it. That's the only recommendation I have.

This product works well. It may be wet, but it is never oily. Howver, it's very sticky. Use gloves and avoid spray on the body of your car. Let it dry before you drive. I wait about 2-3 minutes. It certainly makes driving much safer. Despite the cost, to me, it's worth it. Hope this helps. Be safe.

I had a few left over and was slated to do a change in my 05 accord (Which has MAJOR transmission issues and countless of complaints; Google it) and was told by a mechanic it would be ok. Poured both products in some old glassware and I looked at it side by side I didn't see a difference But read somewhere the detergents that they use ARE different. So from me to you- I wouldn't use it in anything but what it was designed for and vice verse. This stuff is expensive compared to Regular T-oil. Why chance it if you don't have too?

Karen, I have only ever used this product on vehicles. Mequiar's website has a customer care section. Who better than the manufacturer? Have a great day.

I sprayed the undercarriage with the pressure washer at the coin car wash to get the mud and road salt off. after it dried I sprayed the bare metal parts with fluid film aerosol can and the little plastic wand that comes with it; when it hits the rusty metal you can watch it bubble & fizz...kinda neat; then it sticks to the metal; doesn't seem to wash off very easily so I think it provides pretty good protection; I've sprayed all the cars underside with it and the lawn tractor, too. we buy it by the case of 12.
