Another quicky.

[Detroit Style Dragger]

I did not clay, rub out, or wax this car. That jazz can wait until later. The car just received a quick spiff and nothing more.

Before and afters(crappy cellphone pictures):

It came super clean! Are you buying this?

 

[Detroit Style Dragger]

Id be tempted to buy it if, I had the money they want for it and it had a black interior.

I use to, Ive done a few cars with in the past few months. They were just friends cars though. I'm thinking about doing side stuff again though, I mean. You cant beat that non taxed income.

When you have the time, let me know and Ill see what I can do for you.

Something similar to that, yes. Its not as strong as that product though. I don't water mine down at all, even though I could.

It is safe to use on any wheels as long as there is a finish on them. Raw wheels will be turned into trash upon contact with it.

Right on. I figured the link I posted would have pulled the clear and paint off the wheel. Whatever you used did a GREAT job.

If you let it sit on there long enough it will. No doubt about that. If you look at my "Rubbed one out" thread, I used straight acid on 20+ year old wheels/finish.

On this car, I did not use anything more than soap and water. Through work, I use Automagic stuff(which I think blows) and a Dewalt wheel.

Car looks nice. a little acid on the wheels knocks down that brake dust in a second! unless their polished alum. then they turn white :lol: i hate dewalt wheels, their too heavy and the trigger is really touchy and the motor is so torquey. nice smooth makita is my weapon of choice

I had an air powered wheel at my old place. That was a nice rig. It weighed in around 2lbs!

x2 Dewalt wheels piss me off, Makita is the number one option IMO also.

Makita 9217 is a nice wheel.
