But why would you want to keep "wheel shine" off your wheels? I can see wanting to keep tire products off of them . . .

What size can did you get?

When I used to work in product development, I worked on the design on a cap just like that for a local inventor so he could get it vacu-formed in different diameters. Had a prototype lid lying around but I guess it got tossed cos the wife thought it was an old trash can lid lol

But what keeps the tire shine off your car when you start rolling?

Cool idea but many of us apply tire products with a sponge. This keeps the excess off so you don't sling product all over your car.

Proper application and 15-20 minutes of set time. I have never had any sling onto my paint...
