TAR education - TIPs
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_LW0SC8XIpiA/TaQhPAP-xEI/AAAAAAAABqo/FESuEdKgALE/s800/DSCF6201.JPG
whenever after any 2 x 2 feet area clayed - we should stop & check for any Visible sighted contaminants - such as tars, dust, sands or brake dust
Note
Failing to do such - you might transferred A to B & contaminate another area with scratches..etcs...
STOP! In the name of Love - before you hurt me!!!
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_LW0SC8XIpiA/TaQhQGH7UwI/AAAAAAAABqs/e9IL7zIdw6U/s800/DSCF6202.JPG
remove them prior folding to a new area & continue to clay the next area

very visible fine line cut - is done only professionally - regular car wash damages!!!!

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_LW0SC8XIpiA/TaQhW-ZTaqI/AAAAAAAABrQ/vs-rKRB74pA/s800/DSCF6268.JPG
SWIRLS is usually inflicted by our habits & the wrong way of handling washing , also techniques (wrong way of shampooing - circulating) & material used - such as sponges, worn out mitts/microfibers, drying cloth - cotton cloth - old rags, old t-shirts, jeans la....etcs...as our clear coat is only 2/1000th part of an inch
therefore I make it a point to change my Microfibers once every 3-4 months to prevent
a 50/50% area set

Opti-Coat provide a superior clear coat film that is highly resistant to chemical etching, harder than factory clear coat to reduce swirls and scratches, and a permanent hydrophobic surface that is easier to clean and stays cleaner for longer. as it does not get degrade and cannot be removed by chemicals such as cleaners wash or even degreasers

Its just simply amazing...how effortless & easy to care for the most tedious / filthiness area....of our wheels, this is the most important place to begin for any car wash...(kindly allow your wheel to cool down prior washing, as at some extreme brake our rotor may get heated till 300 degrees or so) not i wait you wash the kind of thing
most of the wheel damages is done the wrong way of washing ...with aggressive cleaner with chemicals like degreaser as such found in wheels cleaners
impose danger to both our skin & inhalations....
allow me to share with you

TIPS
pls allow your wheel to cool down prior washing them - as not advise to threaten both extreme temperature -
and most car owners or detailer want an instant gratifying results - so much so - strong acid base - wheels cleaner are use often in this area - corrosive even to our skins & hands - threaten the wheel coat as prematurely worn down

oily dressing is something is irritating - as it will trap dust & dirt , and once your your sleeves wipe across accidentally ta da - oily dark stained out sleeves
1stly old dressing must go - with power clean diluting 1 part 3 water & agitate with soft bristle hair brushes & wipe down with damp MF
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_RsduO4BD4FA/TNUhlwQHtcI/AAAAAAAAL5Y/53WkVwwvxS0/s800/P1160487.JPG
as for me i rather choose a UV coating base product instead of shinny looking ( dust attracting) - as Optimum leather protectant do not cover up like others dressing does - but will definably prolong the oxidation part
