Hi,

Having two problems with my color wheel center crests:

1) Hazing of the clear finish covering them - white residue of some type?

2) While rubbing one with a cloth and a little plexus (which seemed to make it look better), the crest came off in my hands!

Anyone else have similar experiences? I use P21S wheel cleaner, which I hope is not causing the haze issue? The part coming off just seems to be bad epoxy (a second one is feeling loose now too).

I believe I'm still under warranty, so I'm back to the dealer on this soon... would like to know if this is common. My car has very few miles and is a garage queen, so it is not due to harsh conditions or treatment.
