This was given was given to me on facebook and I was wondering if it held any water (pun intended). has anyone tried this or can think of any way this could do more harm than good? or maybe even suggest something that does the same thing just as well so I could compare the two. haha.

I've done this before to keep them looking clean and black. Never noticed any side effects. Don't know if there's any potential negatives but I bet someone will have a better answer.

I've used old tire gel I didn't like on the tires for them as well, seems to do the job too.

Very interesting subject and an economical way.

I cant really think of any negative side effects.

A wheel well dressing that would act in a similar fashion would be Chemical Guys' Bare Bones. Does a fantastic job of darkening the appearance and helps to prevent stuff from sticking and building up.

The biggest downfall to using WD-40 in the wheel wells is that the oil does not dry, and when you drive over any dirt, it sticks to the wheel wells more. I use armor-all, Poorboys Bold and Bright, or anything else I have on hand that is inexpensive and a water based dressing.

How about this: http://www.griotsgarage.com/product/...C+35+ounces.do
I have used their products before and have had good luck with them.

I wouldn't want to spray WD-40 in my wheel well. I rather go with any of the products mentioned thus far.

I was watching an episode of Trucks and the host had mentioned using WD-40 as a way to prevent mud from sticking to the liners. Never tested in myself. I say try it.

I've used it on the engine bay but not the wheel wells.. I'd still like to try that product that Chris mentioned in the above thread.. looks like it worked great on the Subaru they did..

I'm actually thinking about this product not necessarily a specific brand but anything with the same used.It looks good with the photo so i guess i will give it a try this weekend.
