Ok that sounds like a good idea as it should make for an easier side by side comparison. I cleaned dried and sprayed half of each front rim and took some pictures. I took notes on which half I sprayed, I'm hoping it will be obvious by the end of the test but just to be sure.
I'm thinking of taking pics every Monday for the next month and seeing how it holds up and updating the results here. I'll be updating the first post as the test goes along. I'll have the first pics up as soon as I'm done with a few things I need to do around the house. Its summer in AZ so I don't expect any rain or water to mess with the results.

Thanks for doing the test for us.

Thanks for taking the time for the team.....Infinus.....
I wish I could do a test myself but it seems that this product is so new that it's not even up here yet.....
Please do keep us posted. I may have to order from your side of the border.
If anyone from Canada on here has seen it somewhere on the shelf, please post up for us northerners.

Edit: I just joined Amazon.com and ordered 2 cans of the spray for which they wanted about $12 for the product plus $23! for shipping (standard)--
The expedited shipping was about double!
Very pricey.
I'll wait for it to become available here.
Thanks anyway Teo.

I contacted armor all about the so call rim "protectant" we have in canada, its pretty much packaged the exact same as the wheel protectant and im pretty sure it says protectant on it
I guess its only a cleaner

Reference Number: 6169117
Dear Mr. Hahaha,
Thank you for contacting us about Armor All Wheel Protectant. We always appreciate hearing from our consumers.
Unfortunately, the new Armor All Wheel Protectant is not available in Canada at this time. The only product available in Canada is the Rim Cleaner, this will clean but not protect the rims. I will let our marketing department know of your interest in this product, it is safe on all types of rims.
Again, thank you for contacting us.
Sincerely,

not sure it this helps but a member from detailing bliss mention he got his from Canadian Tire for 12.99 which is kind of expensive. i just went to my local target and found these in the auto section for $6. i was tempted to get it but will wait until i see the results. i was gonna buy 3. then i realize i was there for trash bags and detergent. lol
I wouldn't mind the price since buying south of the border is even more expensive.
