Now that's what I call a night of partying!!! I seriously had to re-read that sentence, as I instantly thought of neck ties.
Do you keep that stuff laying around the garage? Is it safe for your paint?
You could after you purchase a can. I am a mechanic (well formally, now for personal reasons only) and I have the stuff everywhere
It depends on the type; the non-chlorinated stuff is a bit less harsh then the chlorinated type. I know on most automotive finishes (mainly engine bay exposure) it is pretty harmless. New paint it will eat with a desire though, and it may dull the finish on certain paints. You could spray into a rag then wipe the rims if you are cautious... Carb cleaner will kill paint FYI!!!
It really does not affect anodizing either. Definitely do not spray it into both eyes... just saying
