would this product remove the clearcoat on My old Cadillac alloy wheels?

It should take off enough clearcoat and paint to be able to lightly sand in preparation for paint. This is strong stuff and should only be used with the proper PPE.

Yes. It will remove anything thats on metal. Even works on powder coats and bedliner. Probably also works on undercoats.

No, but Ultimate Compound will be much more effective at removing the swirls. Follow with Ultimate Polish and a finishing pad to bring back the clarity and shine.

I'm sure it would depend on how bad the surface was. Mine was light / new rust. I didn't do any prep and had great results.

No I don't believe so. It does erase small surface scratches, but I found that I had to really scrub the areas to get them to wear off. I noticed that the paste restored a beautiful hard shine to the paint, no damage whatsoever! I would recommend having a lot of clean, dry terry cloths on hand, because when the paste is on the paint, I found that it left a film that I had to constantly go over. Deep scratches I am still skeptical about.

Not sure. I used it on a Ford clear coat finish and it worked great without any problems.

yes, have to use turtle wax chrome polish to remove original sticky shipping oil and every 2 weeks to preserve shine....Carbon steel used for blade�

As long as the clear coat is glossy and kind of thick... If the scratches or swirls are really deep.. deeper cut Scratch product by Meguiar ScratchX or 2.0 would be better followed by this polish and wax.. Fyi do not use this product without following with polish then wax. You are going professional with this much work... do it right and reap the rewards. It will shine better than new or any wash ever.

Yes. While there are better and less harsh alternatives, this compound will remove the clear coat and paint if you work diligently enough at it. For windows, I'd suggest a solution of 3 parts white vinegar to 1 part water, as someone else also suggested.

Very much so, yes, I have put it on glass, chrome wheels, car finishes and fiberglass finishes. I am very sure you will be able to tell the difference.

As far as I know you have to buy their remover. Look up "Bona Polish Remover" on Amazon.

I would think so. I have used polishing compound for years. It takes out most light scratches and blemishes. Unfortunately once in awhile not. It is worth buying. You will use it. I buy a can about every 15 years.

not 100% sure on this, but what i can tell you is that its a pretty good product! i have a 1991 conversion van with a fiberglass roof. never been detailed before. after washing it, i applied this wax as directed and used a white cloth to remove. MAN, the gunk that came off. i couldnt believe it, with the minimum of effort. hand buffed, no machine. i used about half a bottle for it, so it goes a long way too. doesnt remove surface scratches like a clay bar, but it removes road grime like a champ. pretty much any meguiars products i have used worked well, so good luck. the price cant be beat either. not 100% sure on this, but what i can tell you is that its a pretty good product! i have a 1991 conversion van with a fiberglass roof. never been detailed before. after washing it, i applied this wax as directed and used a white cloth to remove.

I used this product a few years, it's a fantastic polish for stainless steel and cooper. However, in my experience using the product, I would have to say NO.

As far as I know, Sonax does not remove rust; it is designed to remove brake dust and other contaminates which can discolor your wheels. I suppose that there would be no harm in trying to remove rust with it, however. I can vouch that it is a great product for its intended purpose, so it would not be money wasted.Jeff

I occasionally use silicone spray on wheels friction joints to ensure smooth operation... You will notice a difference...

Man I'm sorry to hear that. If the key scratch goes through the clear coat I don't think this will help. This is for the spider webs and swirls you see in the sun in your paint. I don't know if you have a buffer but I would start with a more aggressive polish (V34 or V36?) on the orbital and work your way up. If you don't have a machine find a detailer. It would probable be cheaper that way and he will do it right.

Depending on spray pattern it will take paint off a car wheel. But it was totally my fault. I was trying to get tar off and before I knew it I was down to bare metal. :(
