For Pearl White Owners

Mr Clean makes a version of their magic eraser now specifically for cleaning your tires and car of brake dust. I really like the things. There are some generic brands coming on the market now of these squeaky plastic "sponges" that probably work just as well.

I'm not so sure the Mr. Clean Magic erasers are a good Idea. They're made with formalahyde <sp?> I wouldn't use one with bare hands at least!!

They're made with Formaldehyde-Melamine-Sodium bisulfite copolymer.

I wouldn't necessarily worry about that. After all, you're sticking Flourine in your mouth every time you brush your teeth... one of the most dangerous elements on earth. But you don't see people croaking over it. Reason being is it's in low amounts and it's bonded with other element(s) (Sodium).

Same thing could be said about table salt... without sodium you'd be injesting straight chlorine, the addition of another element makes it entirely less dangerous.

That being said, I'm no expert in chemistry so take it with a grain of NaCl (lol2)

Formaldehyde-Melamine is a very hard plastic :) It's not got free formaldehyde available for you to ingest or get into your skin or anything.

I wouldn't advise smoking your magic sponge though...
