I had a little scuff on my Overtrail wheel and used a scratch remover compound. I noticed that the Overtrail wheels have a matte finish textured paint from the factory. When I applied the scratch remover, it removed the textured finish and made the finish very shiny and made it smooth, no more textured finish. I didnt know that textured finish will rub off that easily. Warning to people, be careful when washing or applying any wheel cleaner solution on the wheel. You have been warned.
Beware of Overtrail Wheel Coating

do you have a picture of how it looks now.
I feel your pain! While I admire the overall fit and finish of the vehicle, I agree that some areas require special attention and extra care when cleaning. In addition to the wheels, the shiny black plastic cowling below the windshield is an area of concern. With all the abrasive dirt that collects there it is extremely vulnerable to scratches. Also the tailgate area plastic trim above the light bar is also prone to scratches. We just all need to be mindful of this when washing the vehicle. Next time you are in a brightly lit garage you will see what I mean.
Ceramic coat
Good to know. Mine are ceramic coated so hopefully no issues
Duh.
I had my whole front wrapped with ppf including those plastic black pieces below the windshield! Also whole car ceramic coating including the rims. I washed it with a car soap and sprayed it with a power washer and have no problems so far
