*Sweet Looking TA*//:drool5: .I did that to my 1998/SaturnSC/2
one year,w/the *Rattle Can*.Dayuummm,was that a Mistake!!!!!.It came out *Okay*[I didn`t really like the Results,though],but,
I screwed up big time,and had *OverSpray* all over the car/ut:STUPID to say the least/.
I wash the car a few days later.Took *Kleen Strip* [Mineral Spirits] to the whole car.Took it to the Glass w/a Razor Scraper.
Then I took some Synthetic Compound from GlipTone and wheeled the car.After that,some Mothers Paste Wax.
Last Year,prior to Winter,I,took the Wheels off,and Hand Painted,the 4/Calipers/Rotor Edges/Springs/Dust Shields & Chassis Steel.
Much Better results...and no overspray!!!!!!!...lol.I always spray the wheel wells,w/a Cleaner.I let it stand `til I fully rinse the
Exterior for washing,then,fire up my 4000 PSI/Cold Water Power Washer/:devil:.It cleans them up nice.After it drys,I spray,w/Tire Shine:
the wheel wells/sponge the tires/spray the front bottom Air Deflector [For Radiator]/.It does look nice. It`s like the Final Touch for the exterior....

I use an APC cleaner with every wash and spray the wells down good. I have never taken the time to paint the brake parts but should after seeing this.
That`s nice work BILL and gives a great final finish to the car. You guys are right, It looks like a 500 dollar suit with 10 dollar shoes when you don`t care for this area.
Again nice work thanks for the info and pics.
Most of our cars have front suspension parts that are visable through the wheels. On my SS, I painted the vertical supports with Rustoleum Satin Black 8 yrs ago and haven`t had to touch them since. Also painted the rear axle at the same time. Makes a big difference.

So Bill, this is going to be a few stupid questions
1. what wheel cleaner did you use?
2. How do you torque down the wheels? Only thing I can think of is like at tire shops when they have those air guns?
Oh okay! Haha man I feel like I should smack myself for such a dumb question lol!
Looks great! Car looks so nice, almost to shiny to look at
