I guess I drove the truck too soon or put too much on the tires. Any particular best way to remove without damaging the paint? Figure the stuff is not caustic or anything, but wanted to see what the braintrust thinks.

If a microfiber won't pull it off by itself, then a quick detailer spray should work.

Best thing for tires is plain soap and water and air dry.
oils - shines attracts dirt.

Worst thing for tires is armor all, but then again that stuff is bad on everything.

For a new vehicle (and older)
As soon as I could I used 303 protectant, works great and has a UV (sun) blocker to stop the materials from getting baked.
Great stuff to get a coating on when the vehicle is new made in the USA.
I put it on once a month in the summer (Florida).

For the weekly cleaning of dust and human oils and other crap, this is a great detailer / cleaner.

Best thing about these is they do not "slick shine" and attached dust and they do not stink.
I hate getting into a vehicle and smelling a product.

The trucks dash and others did not "shine" when showroom new and this is the same result after drying.
