awesome work, scott! question - what is your process for cleaning the tires/wheelwells for those office jobs? it doesn't seem that you have access to running water and hose, so would you use something like QEW? thanks.

When you spit shine do you apply the first product to the whole car then remove with the next product or do you apply and remove both products one panel at a time?
I spritzed the OCW onto the panel, then applied Natty's Blue directly over it, then removed.

hirosh-I use QEW and a couple of long brushes. Once you get the fenderwells cleaned the first time, they are pretty easy to maintain after that.

Scott,

when you used OCW to spit shine....did the car take on the look of the Natty's blue or the Optimum?

Your one steps look better than some people's full details.

Exactly right!

Wade-the paint took on more of the Natty's super wet look but seemed slicker right away than usual.

Hey Scott, I am glad you hooked up with Rick on his BMW and Lexus. Both vehicles should have enough wax on them to last a year by now!

nice work, especially on the wheels, what do you use to get them that clean/reflective?.....hopefully its just a shadow, but on the lexus if you get the time take off the wheels and give them a good cleaning, in that one pic you can kind of see the caked on wheel crap coming through if thats what it is, not trying to be a ****, just a heads up
