Eagle One KEEP CLEAN wheel spray

I love my X but it's a pain cleaning all that brake dust off my wheels every other weekend.

I saw this wheel spray at AutoZone from Eagle One that supposedly repels brake dust for a minimum of 2 weeks after application. Anyone used this product? Does it really work and does it really hold up for 2 weeks? Any downsides (does it splatter droplets on your body panels)?

I seen the infomercial for it, but never used it. If it works it will definately be worth the money.

the eagle wheels spray works ok there's still brake dust. it leaves a white residue on the wheels. you dont see it when you apply but after a couple of days you'll see brake dust streaks.

Eagle 1 is good, but not as good as the P21s wheel cleaner

i've used it, it'll work for 4-5 days but what i like about it is that the wheels are easier to clean after you apply it. it will leave residue if you spray it on. i just spray it onto a cloth and wipe the wheels down by hand.

it might peal your brembos. i dont use anything on my wheels except soap water and wax. anything else risks screwing up the red brembos like it did on the 8 and 9's

This^^^^

It's like rain-x for your rims, but instead of lasting for months, it lasts for days.

personally i use one part simple green with 10 parts water. removes almost all of the brake dust and all you have to do is rinse with water afterwards. i have been using this on all of my cars with no adverse effects.

ghetto? yes, but effective and cheap.

Pam works really well to after you clean your wheels. Yes, Pam the cooking stuff. Spray a little on a nice microfiber cloth and put a thin thin thin coat on your wheels. When they get dirty just take a hose to them, comes right off.
