Wheels after detailing

I finally had the chance to get out and take care of my wheels.



After a normal wash/rinse/dry.



I removed them from the car and went to work.



First I used a good cleaner to get the break dust off the back of the rims and remove any remaing salt from this past winters (been a screwy spring) snow. Then coated it with a good waxing, then went to work on the front.



Here is the before picture

Then on the front side.. I used Mequires #9 swirl remover, then their Professional Polish, and then with NTX wax.



Put on a little tire dressing and bingo

As I was working on the last tire, I caught this reflection in the rim and was just WOW!!! Blown Away

Lastly... here she is all done and dry... I still haven't had a chance to Clay bar, polish or WAX her yet.... does she really need it.??

of course! at the minimum, wax it, wax the wheels too :) Use clay and polish if you feel up to it. Waxing it will make it easier to clean and get bugs off as well. :xyxthumbs
 
Looks good, but the thing is that those type of wheels look great even when they have just been washed. I don't like them on our blazers, since once I polish, and wax, they don't look any different!!!
