TW tire gel on my IS300

Well since many have questioned about the TW finish 2001 tire gel in the bright green bottle, I decided to take a few pics of the IS300 with it on there. This is my first wash after 1x aio and 1x SG. Plan on 2x SG tommorow (too cold and snowing today ). Here is the first pic, love the way new rotors and calipers look . BTW, I use compressed air to dry the rims and brakes to prevent rusting on the painted areas. It also dries the tires great for an application of TW tire gel. Hey, I just got inspired to go AIO my rims .

here is a shot of the front tires. The flash makes them look glossier than they really are. ooo, but check the paint. Can't wait to get more SG on there.

rear shot, I love this photo. The flash makes the camera focus on the metallic specs close to me and the high gloss towards the taillights. Carguy would be proud, except for my messy garage.

Looks GREAT , but tire is a tad too shinny for my personal taste. I just rec'd Z16 tire gloss today and will be trying it on weekend. Hopefully it won't be so shinny.

Tires are a little too shiny for my taste, but I like those rims and your paint looks perfect!

check the picture without flash, that is how they look in real life. Red car guy's tires with zaino looks shiney in his pics too probably because of the flash.
