Unless you see him select the balance method, you won't know

I'm betting if you are using a Discount tire, they are balancing dynamic.

FYI: The Discount Tire owner is a GT3Cup car racer

Try the PAM. I'll send you the $5 if it doesn't work. Thin coat.

The motor oil is not designed to stick to metal and motor oil is not good as it runs off onto the tires

I tried the Pam on the wheels. Definitely helped in junk removal but truth be told it was almost as easy to knock it off without it (I used the Pam on one side only). For the record, I started with balanced tires and although removing the junk seemed to help to keep them from feeling quite so out of balance by the end of the third heat cycle they felt pretty much out of wack albeit this was at Heartland which seems like a very abrasive surface.
