Dear (Contact First Name),
We had a customer ask us a good question ... and so we answered!
Background:
Back in January 2015, we had a customer order the patented Stripe-It-All Installation Tool #8000 and a set of Fire Red rimstripes #6032-1/8-BIG Rim. This customer asked us not to use his name, so we will call him "Mr. D". We had not heard from Mr. D until a few days ago when we received this email. Mr. D's emails will be in blue.

Hello,
I purchased your stripe-it-all kit and love it. I'm curious as to whether it is safe to use something like Sonax Wheel Cleaner Plus on the wheel with the stripe.
Thanks and love your product!

Rob replied:
Thanks for the kind words. Send a pic or two of your results!
I don't have a good answer other than Sonax, or any wheel cleaner, has ingredients that must be kind of harsh to remove brake dust and grime. Since you will always have to scrub the wheels anyway to get them really clean, stick with soap and water and you won't have any problems.

Thanks Rob for your response. I was afraid you were going to say that. I was hoping I could avoid getting down on my hands and knees. lol
Here are a couple of pics. If you use the pics, please do not use my name.
What I liked is that you included a few extra strips to practice. And trust me I needed all the strips that you included as I made a couple of mistakes along the way. Needless to say, I was under the gun when I was on the last strip. Talk about pressure. lol
Thanks again!
Mr. D

Thanks "Mr. D"! Those rimstripes look WONDERFUL on your Porsche!!
