Maybe try sonax wheel cleaner. I've used it before with some success but yours looks caked on really bad.

Bleche White has been the best thing ive used. just a few go round with the brush and all the brown is gone. https://www.amazon.com/Black-Magic-120066-Bleche-Wite-Cleaner/dp/B004YZUK02/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1520009768&sr=8-4&keywords=blechewite+tire+cleaner

Never use petroleum based products on tires. Causes cracking and other bad stuff.

Use light degreaser to clean then use

chemical guys vrp, excellent stuff. You can use it anywhere.

Chemical Guys TVD_107_16 V.R.P. Vinyl, Rubber, and Plastic Super Shine Dressing (16 oz) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FJIT9BO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_DfpDybB2VX1XH

I'm reposting some suggestions I made from a previous similar thread, hope it works out for you (the last person's budget was $100; not sure what yours is, but you can pick and choose!)

 

Optimum No Rinse: Concentrated and capable of being diluted as a wash, quick detailer, clay lubricant, window cleaner, light interior cleaner, and more.

Optimum Opti-Seal: Incredibly easy to use sealant (wipe on and walk away!), can be used in place of RainX on windows, good drying aid, and useful as an interior dressing as well. Opti-seal ALL the things!

Detailing brushes: Because every detailer can use more brushes!

Nanoskin Autoscrub Sponge: Makes the process of decontaminating your paint much faster. Much longer life than clay and can be used even after dropped on the ground! Use the ONR as lubricant and you save tons of money.

The Rag Company Eagle Edgeless Towels, 4 pack: These will be the best towels he's ever used.

The total for all of this should be $97.96, just under your budget :)

 

A couple other suggestions if you want to mix and match:

Smaller Opti-Seal: Since it's the biggest budget item here and a little goes a long way, you can go with the small one to include more items in your bundle.

Adam's Wheel Cleaner: The least terrible smelling wheel cleaner, but extremely effective as well. Good if that truck throws a lot of brake dust.

CarPro PERL: For protecting exterior plastics as well as dressing them, and for use as a satin look tire dresing.

Wheel Woolies: Makes cleaning wheels a much nicer experience, and won't fling brake dust into your face like the brushes do.

Hope this helps! If you want any more specific recommendations for any category, feel free to ask! As for things to avoid, Armorall, Turtlewax and Chemical Guys in my opinion.

I was thinking of this one. https://www.amazon.com/Chemical-Guys-ACC_3002-Contoured-Applicator/dp/B00BJCHTFW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1478971029&sr=8-1&keywords=tire+applicator

Here's all the stuff I use :)

• Cobra Guzzler HD Waffle Weave Drying Towel 16 x 24 inches http://www.autogeek.net/cobra-guzzler-hd-towel.html (this is a must-have)
  
• Pinnacle Signature Series II Carnauba Wax http://www.autogeek.net/pisisepawax.html (by far my favorite wax for my CW GTI)
  
• Chemical Guys Silk Shine http://www.amazon.com/Chemical-Guys-TVD10916-Sprayable-Dressing/dp/B001TI1F5Q (works great as a tire dressing and to shine up the plastics)
  
• Stoner Invisible Glass Cleaner http://www.amazon.com/Stoner-92196-6PK-Invisible-Glass-Cleaner/dp/B00BUL1KRK
  
• Nu Finish Liquid Car Polish http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BPSW7C/ (this is an amazing polish...)
  
• Viking Blue Microfiber Wax Applicator http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0051MYL8E/ (cheap and they work well, even after throwing them in the wash after several times)
  
• Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001O7PNS2/ (I use this for the quick wax jobs, like inside the trunk hood/trunk/door.)
  
• Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Detailer http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000RXNLK6/ (I use it for basically everything outside the car to touch up. I even clean the inside of the rims and exhaust tips with it)
  
• Meguiar's Quik Interior Detailer Cleaner http://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-G13616-Interior-Detailer-Cleaner/ (better than Armor All IMHO and it works well. Doesn't leave any nasty grease/shiny spots)
  
• Griot's Garage Micro Fiber Wheel Wand http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004YMRIC8/ (love these)
  
• Sonax Wheel Cleaner http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003UT3S6Q/ (the chemical smell is harsh, but it works wonders!)
  
• Eurow Microfiber Towels 16in x 16in 36-Pack http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0031B4YU2/ (some cheap microfibers and they hold up pretty well. I like the fact that they're yellow so you know when you should throw one out.)
  

If it's been a while I'll scrub mine with Simple Green and a scrub brush. Then I use Meguiars Endurance Tire Gel. Best affordable stuff I've found locally. It goes on really easy and has a nice balance of not too shiny and not too flat.

Here it is on my car: PIC

Here's one that I've used with good results. There are quite a few others too. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BJCHTFW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_NjQQybQF5TYZ7

  Edit: To add, I went to Lowes and bought a cheap inline sprayer for my hose and it works fine for foaming up the vehicle, plus it only costs $5.
  
  Edit2: If you are going to downvote me please post why you don't like my recommendation.

Meguiars Hot Rims Wheel Cleaner is on sale for $1.99!

I usually see these for about $4-$6

When I had whitewalls on my Heritage I used this. with very good results.

This might be what you are looking for

Motul Factory Line Chain Lube - runs about $14 on Amazon.

You'll also want one of the 360-degree chain brushes, and a Grease Ninja. These two items have turned my chain cleaning into a 15-minute job.

Links included!

Chain cleaning: I've tried a few cleaners, but plain kerosene works magnificently and won't mess up the rings. Video running through the chain-cleaning process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7H5hgVbTvhg

I'm honestly not too sure. Its the Blue bottle

Seems like you're in good shape. Do you have a wax or sealant yet?

I use these but honestly I rarely use them.

And it will take you 2.5 minutes to get them dirty again.

Take a look at armorall wheel protectant, stuff is a bit expensive. But it does keep the wheels cleaner for longer.

I've always struggled to keep my vehicles clean because 1) they were always old, 2) I've lived in condos, 3) car washes did a terrible job / detailers charged too much, and 4) I didn't realize you could do all of this yourself pretty effectively.


When I bought a new truck at the beginnging of the year, I randomly stumbled upon an Ammo NYC video and the nerd / clean-freak was intrigued. A couple dozen videos later, and I was hooked. Shout out to Larry for your passion - thank you for the insane amount of information on your channel. (Wish I could afford all of your products, or that you had some of them on Amazon!).

Living in a condo, I have to swing by my local coin wash and take up a bay with a few buckets during off-peak hours, but I've gotten it down to 1.5 hours and looking like this every time.

I've only been doing this for a few months, but thought I'd share the products I've researched and selected based on reviews and costs. Hope this helps save someone time!

TOOLS

• McGuire-Nicholas 22015 15-Inch Collapsible Tote - https://amzn.to/2HXGsvd - I love this thing. Handle is sturdy and holds every chemical I need.
  
• Relentless Drive Ultimate Car Wash Mitt - https://amzn.to/2KJC7td - Great mitt and would strongly recommend it. I've only used the mitt for a few washes so I can't comment on durability, but if I had to guess I think it's going to hold up. My only complaint is that it's so voluminous that it's difficult to rinse / wring out the dirt when using the two-bucket method. Not a big enough problem to look for another mitt, though.
  
  BUCKETS
  
  
• Chemical Guys ACC_101 Detailing Bucket Kit - https://amzn.to/2KJb552 - a good starter bucket, but it's worth calling out how much of this stuff is BS marketing: the bucket is only 4 gallons, the gamma lid can be bought for cheaper on amazon, the citrus gloss is OK, and the wash mitt is worthless / isn't going to hold up. I barely used the mitt once and fuzz falls off constantly when handling.
  
• Adam's Grit Guard Wash Bucket with Lid - https://amzn.to/2IoSflo - Better value than chemical guys, but the bucket is just a regular bucket ($4 at Home Depot) and the gamma lid can be purchased for $10-15 on Amazon. I'm not convinced grit guards are worth it, but more on that later.
  
• Grit Guard Washboard Bucket Insert - https://amzn.to/2HW4juZ - the product is well made and does what it's intended to do, but I'm skeptical of its value. Yes, rubbing your mitt on a washboard would intuitively get dirt to fall off, but is it actually more effective than using your hands (which you do anyway to wring out the mitt)? And I'm not buying that the fins "trap dirt." Anybody who looks at their rinse bucket while washing wheels for example can plainly see the water's black. Dirt's floating everywhere.
  
  
  CHEMICALS
  
  
• Mothers 08216 California Gold Instant Detailer - https://amzn.to/2KJ2f7t - this stuff has done a pretty good job for quick wipe-downs, spot cleans, etc.
  
• Griot's Garage 11108 Window Cleaner - https://amzn.to/2Iq5CSF - The spray bottle itself is awesome and works really well. The solution also seems to work well, though I've only ever used it after washing the truck and so I'm not sure how much it helps.
  
• Meguiar's G3626 Ultimate Waterless Wash & Wax - https://amzn.to/2jFg3DJ - I used this a few times with the microfiber directional pass method after some serious pollen clouds invaded Austin, and it worked surprisingly well. Ran through 3-4 towels to do my entire truck, then spot-cleaned with an instant detailer. Even though wheel wells and a few pieces were still dirty, it was a huge improvement without the hassle of a full wash. Will definitely be using this as my in-between wash method.
  
• Chemical Guys V7 High Gloss Spray Sealant and Quick Detailer - https://amzn.to/2HXiQ9R - I'm new to detailing, but this stuff is probably the most impressive chemical of everything I've used. The combination of a damp microfiber + V7 produces the result everyone thinks about when they think about car washes: a clean car with no streaks or water spots. Wringing out my microfiber towel can get old, but the end result is just awesome.
  
• Chemical Guys Citrus Wash and Gloss - https://amzn.to/2I1knvx - I don't have the luxury of a frother right now, but from simply adding some in a bucket and using a power washer to generate suds, I get decent foam and the soap seems to work well. That said, it's not earth-shattering and I will probably try other washes when I run out.
  
  
  INTERIOR
  
  
• Mothers 06512 All-In-One Leather Care - https://amzn.to/2IlawAg - This stuff works great and smells even better.
  
  
  WHEELS
  
  
• Adam's Deep Wheel Cleaner - https://amzn.to/2K09l6f - The spray bottle is terribly difficult to press and I always end up using way more than I want. I'm not confident I need to use this instead of just using soap. Maybe it's for exceptionally dirty cars or those with tons of brake dust, but I'm rarely in either camp so I may not buy some more after I run out.
  
• Adam's Hex-Grip Pro Tire Dressing Applicator - https://amzn.to/2HYtb5y - Works well and easy to handle.
  
• Mothers Wheel Brush - https://amzn.to/2K0Ky1Y - really like how easy this is to handle and how soft the bristles are. Highly recommended.
  
• Optimum Opti-Bond Tire Gel - https://amzn.to/2KJsxGP - This is a good low-gloss gel, though I need to try additional coats to see if I can get those tire shinier.
  
• ABN Car Wheel Rim Cleaning 3-Piece Kit - https://amzn.to/2KFgSIR - Yes the big woolie has good reach and allows you to clean the inside of your rims effectively, but the handle is annoyingly difficult to hold after it becomes saturated / heavy to hold.
  
  
  TOWELS
  
  
• Chemical Guys Professional Grade Premium Microfiber Towels, Gold - https://amzn.to/2HY8Q0a - these things are outsidanding and are a great value. Definitely watch Larry's video on microfiber care, which fixed all of my annoyances with microfibers accruing fuzz in the dryer.
  
• THE RAG COMPANY EAGLE EDGELESS 500 Korean 70/30 Super Plush 500gsm Microfiber Detailing Towels - https://amzn.to/2HYVmky - very high plush and high quality, though I end up using the Chemical Guys towels more often and save these for random spot details. Probably not ideal.
  
• THE RAG COMPANY Premium Window, Glass, Mirror & Chrome Korean 70/30 Microfiber - https://amzn.to/2rrveVg - work great for cleaning windows and mirrors.
  
• Nylon Laundry Bag - https://amzn.to/2rtYOcP - I have one bag for clean and one for dirty. Has done a great job of keeping dust off the rags during storage.

I have wheels way more intricate than these and I use this tool. It saves so much time, especially when paired with a detailing paint brush. I can get all four wheels cleaned with Griot's tire cleaner and these tools in less than 30 minutes.

To answer your question, D101 diluted 4:1 is fine on wheels that aren't super dirty.

My parents' neighbor has been watching as I borrow Mom and Dad's hose and he recently asked if I could take on his car and I was happy to oblige! Overall, the exterior was in okay shape - couple bugs, a few spots of tree sap and bird poo, as well as just a good amount of dirt and mud tucked in some spaces. I gave the car a two bucket wash, clay, Iron X treatment, Iron X, clay and topped it off with a sealant. Thanks for pointing out that I listed my procedure out of order, /u/Deadfable! Here's the deets:

Products Used:

• Meguiar's Gold Class Shampoo
  
• Optimum No Rinse (Quick Detailer dilution for claying)
  
• CarPro's Iron X for decontamination
  
• Nanoskin AutoScrub Fine Grade Sponge
  
• Meguiar's D101 (4:1 on tires, wheel wells - 10:1 on the interior)
  
• Aerospace 303 Protectant for interior dressing
  
• Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax
  
• Harbor Freight DA Polisher w/ Buff & Shine 5.5" red pad
  
• Wheel Woolies
  
• Solo Horton Brushes
  
• Other assorted brushes
  
• Microfiber towels from The Rag Company
  

• 0000 Steel Wool from Home Depot (used with QD for the exhaust tips)
  

• Optimum Opti-Bond Tire Gel applied via foam block
  
• Stoner's Invisible Glass
  
  Overall a fun job! Got rewarded with a hearty lunch of sausage and peppers on Italian bread. Happy detailer!!

I use one of these, and it works pretty great.

Says it doesn't have acid and is paint safe

I can't comment on your particular issue, but I use Sonax wheel cleaner and I really like it. It melts away brake dust etc. and it turns purple when it "reacts" with debris on your wheels.

I apologize in advance for this long post. None of these are "must gets", but they are what I got for my 2016 Premium forester. I'm posting this for my own future reference as well as to help some people who are wondering what accessories might be good for their new forester. I highly recommend ordering from Jackie from Annapolis Subaru @ 443-837-1422 as she can get you some good prices on the subaru accessories as well as WeatherTech products! I saved on WeatherTech shipping costs (~$20) by ordering through Jackie and the warranty is the same as if I had bought them through their website.

Please note that some of these accessory links are for my specific car year, model and configuration. I have a 2016 Premium forester without eyesight (affects the Covercraft/heatshield sunshade - they also have eyesight compatible sunshades!).

Also, I personally didn't get my windows tinted, but I think that is something that you should seriously consider doing :)

This was by far the nicest vehicle I’ve worked on. My aunt was in town and asked me to clean up her car, but I only had about three hours to give it quick in and out so I had to do what I could. The interior had a nice layer of dust over everything, there was dog hair in most of the upholstery, the mats were covered in dirt and salt from the winter, and the leather seats all had a noticeable bit of dirt on them. The outside wasn’t too bad besides the wheels, which were nearly black from all the brake dust. There was also a bunch of tar around the wheels which I removed.

Like I said, I didn’t have a ton of time on this car so I had to do what I could and split my time evenly on the interior and exterior. The wheels easily took about 45 minutes total which really had me rushing to get the rest of the exterior done. My aunt was very happy with the results and asked when she should have me do it again. Next time I’ll be able to plan and have more than a few hours to get more involved since this was kind of a spur of the moment detail. This is a beautiful car in and out and felt lucky to have gotten to work on it. I forget what year model this is, either a 2014 or 2015.

Credit to /u/zenautodetailing for the write up format. Links reflect where I bought the products. Many of these items should be on Amazon Prime.

Thanks for looking!

it looks like you or someone may have used a cleaner for the wheels that was too strong or spray paint. I am no expert but maybe try a clay bar and lube with some [Sonax Full Effect] (http://www.amazon.com/Sonax-230200-755-Wheel-Cleaner-Full-Effect/dp/B003UT3S6Q) first

Buy three buckets, one for wheels, the others for a two bucket system.

Buy something to clean the wheels as well. I have the wheel woolies but I'm going to ask for the woolly wormit for my birthday from my wife.

Get a Waterless Wash and/or Quick Detailer for the times when you don't need a wash but you want to clean stuff up.

Take a look into this new Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Wax for a sealant. I have used the Fast Finish and it's great so this should be even better.

I also use Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax (D156 is the same but in a gallon jug) as a drying aid and it makes the car POP!


As a final suggestion, buy some 303 for the interior. You're going to love it. Not greasy, smells okay (not fruity), and leaves things looking great.

http://www.amazon.com/automotive/dp/B0002U1TXK

I have the Night Fluo and I love the look of it. Honestly regarding the wheels, they aren't as big as a problem as people make them out to be. I clean them maybe once a week and they always look relatively clean regardless. Especially the front wheel. The chain is what makes the rear get dirty much faster than the front. I use this spray to clean them https://www.amazon.com/Best-Wheel-Tire-Cleaner-Amazon/dp/B014V9GFJU . It may be the reason mine don't get as dirty as everyone claims they do, but it's a non-issue in my opinion.

Looks great, but speaking as someone with those rims...cleaning can be a real PITA.

If you're not already using it, Sonax makes a pretty nice product that will save you a bunch of time getting in between those grooves.

No chain store is going to sell you a product like IronX...you may get good results with something like Meguiar's Hot Rims Wheel Cleaner.

Those whitewalls are screaming for some Westley's.

You owe it to yourself to try a bottle of a good wheel cleaner. Besides saving a ton of time and frustration, wheel cleaners dissolve brake dust so it can be harmlessly cleaned off instead of scrubbing it against the wheel paint for a while.

Try one of these (in order of price). Griot's and Meguiar's can be found in most auto parts stores:

• Meguiar's
  
• DUB (by Meguiar's)
  
• Griot's Garage
  
• Sonax

Meguire's Hot Shine sprayed on a round applicator pad (I would suggest using gloves).

I'm not sure why it says on the Amazon page to only spray it on directly, I have only ever used a pad to apply it and it works great. On some tires (such as the tires on my dad's 89) if you apply it in direct sunlight it fades and looks bad, but I've never had that issue with mine.

For wheels you can literally just use soap and a seperate rag that will never touch the paint, or wheel woolies followed by a rag.

You said there wasn't anything on there for Wheels or Interior, but here's the recommended stuff from the wiki:

Hot Rims Wheel & Tire Cleaner

Quik Interior Detailer

Not what I use personally, but just to prove the point a lot of information can be found from the wiki.

If you plan on using tire shine, use something that doesn't contain silicon and i would recommend a gel dressing over spray on shines.

This stuff:

Some OTC stuff you can try are Mother's back to black or Meguiars Ultimate Black

Nice job!

I use Back on Black on my fender flares, and it works great. I have to do it once a year in the spring.

Welcome! Same generation, but different setup. Let me help you out by linking a few things that can make that A6 look significantly better.

*Here's replacement front fog light grills.
*Here's a replacement front lip grill.
*Here is the headlight kit that I (as a weekend auto detailer) would recommend to clean up those yellow headlights.
*Here is the real-deal wheel cleaner that I would suggest getting to battle that brake dust buildup. Yes, it's steep, but this will make those wheels spotless. And this goes for all german-car users!

I love my C5 to death, and I hope only the best for yours!

/r/AutoDetailing would be a good place to ask too, I would for see some answers would be what /u/LexusBrian400 has already said, plus;

Dub

Iron X

That's just off the top of my head.

I have other soaps and ONR. Just wasn't sure if it matters or not.

Also, since you say treat it like matte paint. That means no wax/sealant.

I was reading somewhere online that people were using Meguiar's Tire Gel to clean the wheel and shine up the plastidip? Another suggestion was Brake Dust Pro.

Can I still use a wheel brush to clean it?

I would reccomend these materials for the two bucket wash method. Its probably the most common method, and one of the safest. There are plenty of youtube how to's on this. These are the materials you'll need.

• Two buckets that will be used for the two bucket wash method. They can be purchased from a local home center for relatively cheap. $10
  
• Grit Guards. Preferably two, in order to prevent grit from reentering the wash mitt. $20
  
• Wash Mitt. Something like this will be just fine. $8
  
• Car soap. This is completely up to you. Something like Meguiar's Gold Class is fine. $10
  
  
• Wheel brush. Dependent on what you type of wheels you have. A quick amazon search will give you an idea. $10-20
  
• Sealant. I use Meguiar's M21. Not the best not the worst. Im sure others will chime in an have recommendations for you. $20.
  
• Wax. I don't use a wax because my car is older, and the sealant does just fine.
  
  
• Microfibers. The Rag Company has some great starter kits.
  
  Not Necessarily essentials, but recommended.
  
  
• Wheel cleaner. Something like Sonax. $15
  
• Clay Bar. This will be used to intitially remove contaminants from the car. Plenty of youtube how to's and kits can be found easily through amazon or your local auto parts store. $20
  
  I don't think you need anything like a DA at this point. Others will have recommendations for you, and I encourage you to take their advice as well. Some great youtube channels are Ammo NYC, Larry is a master at explaining how to's. He has is own line of products but they're expensive. You can even email him with questions and he'll respond quickly and go above and beyond to explain somethingto you. Junkman, also another great channel. Chemical Guys, they have some pretty good products but their customer service is shit. Their youtube videos are pretty good but all they do is upsell their products.
  
  I'm fairly new to detailing like you. I dont have the best products, but what I use seems to work for me. There are better products out there but budgets can only be so large.
  

Return the AutoCraft interior brushes. They are absolute horse shit. I used these and the fibers literally fell off after a few uses. Get some from here. https://www.solobrushes.com/products/173-Bridled-Glue-Brush-429/

EDIT: IMO, this wheel cleaner is much better than the one have. http://www.amazon.com/DUB-U1422-Wheel-Cleaner-oz/dp/B00G49NYT0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1458337428&sr=8-1&keywords=dub+wheel+cleaner

https://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-G7516-Endurance-Tire-Gel/dp/B0009IQXJ0

Applied with a foam applicator, let set 15 minutes and wipe excess. No sling for me.

Do you use tire shine? I've found that it creates more dust on my car.

I also recommend this stuff for lessening the amount of dust on your wheels.

I've tried brushes and microfiber. They both have their flaws. I recently picked up a applicator pad from Adams. I'm liking it more and more. Definitely give this a shot. It seems to work very well on my aggressive sidewall tires.

Adam's Hex-Grip Pro Tire Dressing Applicator https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005DNJPSC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_1x3ODbKA97JGD

I've got black wheels so the only time I de-dust them is when I change sets for the seasons. I use this stuff and it works great.

This:

bleche white and a scrub brush, no armor all, that's dangerous on smooth surfaces.

I've been using Armor All Wheel Protectant and I've noticed it keeps the wheels looking nicer and the brake dust doesn't build up as easily. Mostly makes it much easier to clean the wheels next time.

A bit of this and a mr clean should help a bit.

if i want to be lazy, no touch tire spray https://www.amazon.com/Permatex-No-Touch-Tire-Care/dp/B000BO4Z06/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1525709071&sr=8-5&keywords=no+touch+tire+shine

when i'm not lazy, meguiar's high endurance gel https://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-G7516-Endurance-Tire-Gel/dp/B0009IQXJ0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1525709232&sr=8-1&keywords=meguiars+endurance+high+gloss+tire+gel

Mother's makes Back-To-Black which is a better version of exterior Armor-All IMO.

http://www.amazon.com/Mothers-06108-Back-Black-Trim/dp/B0002U1TXK

if you want to make something black that wasnt black, then you basically need to paint it. PlastiDip is probably the go-to for that. you can make a chromed out car all black with it, or turn a tan interior into the darkest night. just follow the directions!

I had good results with Chemical Guys V.R.P. tire dressing. Despite shine being in the name, I didn't find it to be overly shiny. It gave a nice deep, rich black to the tire rubber, and generally just made it look clean.

Those 3 sided brushes suck ass. "The Grunge Buster" You are better off getting one of these:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AC85QRC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I switched to this and my chain has never been cleaner, it also significantly cut down on time.

I enjoy Collinite 845, Optimum soap, drying aid, for my dash, doors interior, and vinyl on the outside , wash mitt , drying towel , interior and exterior microfibers great for buffing wax and dust on the interior. And if you want that shine and to keep the integrity of your clear coat I would wax every couple months, depending the quality of the wax you decide to go with.

I believe these are the exact ones I am using. I bought them off amazon a while ago. Whoolies

Based on what you said about your wheels though I'd still recommend the EZ Detail Brush. If they're tight spokes, you probably won't even be able to utilize the large one. The other two are significantly smaller than the large one.

The only downside to the EZ detail is the spray back from the nylon bristles. As you pull it out of the spokes, it tends to spray back a lot of the chemical from the bristles wicking around.

Sonax is my go-to. But if you want to go all-out, give them a deep clean and decon, and ceramic coat them. I've used Gyeon with good results. Ceramic coating makes them a breeze during regular cleanings. A blast with my power washer gets 95% of the brake dust off.

I just use a wet wash cloth. I don't really like shiny seats. Whatever you do, do not use any foaming cleaners or glass cleaner, it ruins leather.

Edit: Chemical Guys VRP is good stuff as well, or you can use their leather cleaner and conditioner. It doesn't usually leave an oily slippery surface.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005FN58U4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_RtSfAb9VGTVJ7

Griots is a bit cheaper at $0.35 an ounce. The cheapest option I believe.

I have heard of people diluting it themselves but I haven't texted the effectiveness of this.

My nuvinyl won’t be here until tomorrow 😕.

I’m looking at the three products youve linked and trying to decide which one would work the best. My feeling is that this one might be it. So curious!

Which tire dressing applicator is better. adam's or chemical guys?

https://www.amazon.com/Chemical-Guys-ACC_3002-Contoured-Applicator/dp/B00BJCHTFW/ref=sr_1_4?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1511342196&sr=1-4&keywords=tire+dressing+applicator

Definitely give Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner a try. I have had amazing success with this stuff. It will turn from green to red as it is working and breaking down iron particles and break dust.


Also, you can give either CarPro's Iron-X or TRIX (Tar and Iron Remover) a try.

Honestly, by looking at the picture, the Sonax should clean up the break dust and those streaks. Just let it sit on the wheel for a couple minutes and agitate it with a brush. I use this brush to get in behind the spokes as well.

As far as keeping brake dust from accumulating as quick, I'm not sure if there's really a remedy. You can wax your rims, there is stuff out there specifically made for rims, but I've never used it, so I'll let someone with experience speak on that. However, I read the other day someone used Collinite #845 Insulator Wax on their rims (same wax I use). I may give this a try next time I wash the car and see if it helps control the brake dust.

Your list looks good, but is lacking a few item IMO:

http://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-X3002-Microfiber-Wash-Mitt/dp/B000RXKR6M/ref=sr_1_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1396913798&sr=1-1&keywords=microfiber+wash+mitt The mitt you listed should be fine, but I use these. I have 3 of them and it's good to have more than one lying around in case one gets too dirty during the wash. I like to use a different one for the bottom of my car anyway.

I'd get at least one more pack of those Chemical Guys microfiber towels. The more the better.

I use Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner. http://www.amazon.com/Sonax-230200-755-Wheel-Cleaner/dp/B003UT3S6Q/ref=sr_1_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1396914006&sr=1-1&keywords=sonax+full+effect+wheel+cleaner It's a bit pricey but it's very effective at removing brake dust.

For applying the wax, you'll need an applicator pad http://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-X3070-Soft-Foam-Applicator/dp/B0009IQZPW/ref=sr_1_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1396914054&sr=1-1&keywords=foam+applicator+pad

I buy Sonax in bulk because the price per fluid oz is something like 44 cents versus the small bottle's ~$1 per oz.

At 169 fluid oz, you'd be buying many small bottles worth at practically half price. I bought mine about a month ago and I've already gone through about half, but I don't feel too bad.

I don't think that is brake dust, it looks like anti-seize to me. Some old school mechanics use it on lug nuts so they are easier to remove, but it sure looks like they used a ton of it. If that is the case I'd pull the wheel, clean the lugs, let them dry and retorque the wheels.

As far as cleaning of the wheels, I'd give a go at Sonax FE or I think an Iron-X would do it as well paired with a light brush. A lot of the vendors sell lug brushes.

You could start with a decent wheel cleaner like Sonax. That will remove even pretty stubborn brake dust (you may need to use a scrub brush with it).

Sonax. It's the same stuff. $17 on Amazon.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003UT3S6Q/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1466803620&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=Sonax&dpPl=1&dpID=41FlM1230lL&ref=plSrch


Adams is also the same - $15. https://www.amazon.com/Adams-DWC-16-Car-Wheel-Cleaner/dp/B00BPGGSCW

They both work equally well.

Clean them with APC to get off any residue then use something like this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009IQXXG/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_uLi5tb1SN1PH5

Tires will look super shiny but the product won't last very long. Only a few days probably. I recommend something like Optibond tire gel that doesn't have a super shine but lasts much much longer.

I have tried Adams, its one of the cheapest by gallon. Adams Wheel Cleaner I have used Iron X and Trix, Trix being the weakest. I can say that on paint Iron X and Adams are very similar. I only used on my car but I could not tell apart, maybe more seasoned detailers can. Both smell like something death will run away from.

not sure if this is similar to your stuff but this is my favorite

Get a dedicated wheel & tire cleaner like the Meguiar's Hot Rims Wheel & Tire Cleaner, it's a cheaper alternative than the Sonax Wheel Cleaner Plus. The Meg's smells a bit strong (makes me gag if I'm too close). In my opinion they have the same performance in cleaning, it's just that the Meg's is more cost effective.

I️ have a hex logic tire shine applicator: Adam's Hex-Grip Pro Tire Dressing Applicator - Ergonomic Design Makes Detailing Your Tires Easier - Mess Free Application Tire Dressings - Durable, Washable, and Reusable https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005DNJPSC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_ci8XAb5P1WQP5

Does anyone clean theirs? I’ve heard it’s a waste of any product that is potentially remaining in the applicator, but if you were to clean them, how should I️ go about cleaning it?

You need some Mothers Back to Black

It's a bit higher priced now, but there are many like this one. This is what I got though.

Bleche-Wite is surprisingly good at softening up stuff like this so you can rinse it down the storm drain like a boss.

https://www.amazon.com/Black-Magic-800002222-Bleche-Wite-Cleaner/dp/B005R6LOZM

Like other mentioned, get the wheel woolies to keep the barrels clean.

​

Unless the car is just going to sit in your garage and polished with a diaper then I wouldn't spend a bunch of money/time on it. Get one of the popular brake dust cleaners(like Sonax), do a good clean, maybe throw a cheap coat of wax on the inside barrel with whatever you have laying around, keep them clean with the woolies and then just go enjoy the car.

I use the DYC stuff. It works well, for about the same price as the Griots. It smells pretty strongly, though.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EKS5EN6/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_wUW6wbA8C55WJ

They buy a lot of stuff from carrand for sure. Here's just one example

Carrand 93017 Grip Tech Sheepskin Wheel Cleaner https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009VF1AY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_SCz5wbDPFYH7T

Chemical Guys ACCB01 Gerbil Wheel and Rim Brush https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BJCHX8K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_uDz5wb3RQ2XFR

I bought the Chemical Guys one and it's clearly branded Carrand on the handle. That's just one example I can give.

I bought the aluminum grunge brush and I have had no issues with it at all.

Was thinking about pick one of these up, but I don't think it would last past a few uses.

Tirox 360 degree chain brush

I use Sonax on my wheels and clean the calipers with a soft brush like this.

Ok so I'm a little bit crazy when it comes to detailing. For rims, I use

https://www.amazon.com/Adams-Deep-Wheel-Cleaner-16oz/dp/B00BPGGSCW

Any of these deep cleaners will work. They'll smell terrible, which is good because it's actually grabbing the iron and brake dust contaminants and pulling it off of your surfaces. Spray on, let it sit for 30 seconds to a minute, and then I hit it with a wheel brush and mitt.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002LOP5IA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

https://www.amazon.com/Wheel-Fingers-Microfiber-Half-Mitts/dp/B07F3FB152/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1542234430&sr=1-2-spons&keywords=microfiber+wheel+mitt&psc=1

Then I hit it with a clay bar and detail spray, then wipe.

After that, technically you can apply a wax and you can buy a specific wax for your wheels, but I just wax it with colinite 845 since I have a ton of the stuff lying around.

My wheels are gold and so I do this routine once every two-three months. Doesn't take long to do once I keep up the routine as it's usually not that dirty. I ride my bike everyday in all weathers and it keeps up pretty well. Every time I do a quick wash in between, a simple soak with the foam gun and wipe is sufficient

Not too hard with some “bleeding” wheel cleaner. Just spray it on, let it sit, agitate a little if it’s been a while, and spray it off.

Link: Sonax (230200-755) Wheel Cleaner Full Effect - 16.9 fl. oz. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003UT3S6Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_OBd6BbAS8TXW1

I’ve had these for 3+ years and they work wonderfully on all of our rims (3 styles of 5-spokes). Worth every penny.

Just soapy water (with this soap). I've used Sonax before, but it's a hassle because you have to rinse it off before it dries, and the red run-off stains concrete.

Hope this helps! This isn't an exhaustive list of the best professional products but some of the best top rated affordable and highly rated by forums and high subscriber YouTubers. I'll try to answer questions as they come. Thanks for all tye comments and positive/critical feedback. Promise is all helps in the end!

I would go with a PH balanced wheel cleaner just to be safe. I linked the one I use, you can look further through the forum for other recommended PH-balanced options. I would also recommend an iron remover to help get rid of other contaminants.

hey! sorry for the delayed reply...thanks for the help! I was wondering if [Meguiar's All Wheel cleaner] (https://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-Hot-Rims-Wheel-Cleaner/dp/B0009IQXM2) would do the same? I've already got it and don't want to buy another product if this would do the job.

http://www.amazon.com/Mothers-06108-Back-Black-Trim/dp/B0002U1TXK

tried it? Personally I plastidipped mine

No, I used 303 on the outside trim pieces.

I used Meguiars Hot Shine for the tires. I used to use Armor All and holy shit, this stuff is an amazing improvement.

Edit: here's the link http://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-Shine-High-Gloss-Spray/dp/B0009IQXXG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1377214884&sr=8-2&keywords=meguiar%27s+hot+shine

According to multiple car review websites, THIS stuff from Meguiars is the best, but whatever looks best to you would be the best. I like my cheap ArmorAll tire foam

Edit: (unrelated) why the fuck would I have to approve my own comment?

Am I on the right track? I am currently looking for all the products I need to completely detail my car. I know there is no way I could purchase all of these at once, so I am planning on purchasing the major ones first and adding the others over time. I have spent almost two weeks researching on everything I need to do. There is so much information and so many opinions that it is hard to find a definitive answer on what I need.

  > Other Concerns
  
  I am still anxious about spraying water in my engine bay, so I decided to use a spray bottle with soap and water and a microfiber towel to wipe down the engine bay while it is still decently clean. Can I use diluted Meguiar's D143 or will I have to purchase Meguiar's D101 instead? Can the Optimum Tire Gel be used on the black plastics of the engine bay, as well as the other black trims of my car?
  
  I want to protect my interior, in addition to cleaning it. I am very confused on what product I need to use to protect my dashboard from the sun. The same goes for the leather seats, where the creases are forming. I have been using a conditioner (although I am unsure of the exact name) to slow down the crease formation. Should I use the same product for both the dashboard and leather seats (with Lexol Conditioner on top of that)? I have heard of Leatherique Leather Rejuvenator/Prestine Clean, but I am unsure of when I should use that.

Careful, the paint chips very easily. Pissed me off intensely. But they are beautiful :)
This and some woolies make cleaning them easy.

How did the gap become so large? I'm over in Portland, so I only get around to doing a full detail 2-3 times a year. It's generally a 48 hour process for the exterior if I do it solo and don't rush through it. I can keep the detail healthy between washes + product application. Honestly, just use Meguiar's "Last Touch" spray after every wash and it will make your detail last for months. Most other "detailing sprays" are total gimmicks and won't last, and that includes other Meguiar's detail spray products.

I'm telling you, I last detailed in November and didn't wash my car for almost 4 months. It was filthy, but after washing, drying, and applying, it looked like I had just detailed it. Another 2 months went by before I washed again (this last weekend) and the wax/polish I applied all the way back in November is still alive. I loooove this product. I was going through so many cans I went ahead and bought the industrial size jug. For wheels, use this, but not this. I used that crap for awhile before realizing this product causes specks or drops of clear coat on the side skirt panels to drip off into these white stains. It's permanent, and it took me forever to figure out where that shit was coming from. Luckily I caught it early and switched products.

Yeah it's a drag it wears off so fast. I have found Meguiars to stay a lot longer than others I've tried.

Sonax wheel cleaner is by far the best wheel cleaner I've ever used. Most of the dirt is brake dust which is inescapable. But sonax spray melts it away so easily.

I read about a product called Back to Black from Mother's on NAM that has a lot of fans:
http://www.amazon.com/automotive/dp/B0002U1TXK

Armor All Wheel Protectant is actually pretty amazing for this. Keeps dust off for a long time, and can even survive a few rainy days before it'll get gross. I've been using it since I got the car, and I have to say I'm impressed! Cleaning the wheels is also much easier since they don't get nearly as dusty as they used to.

http://www.amazon.com/Armor-All-78482-Wheel-Protectant/dp/B0035XGPNA
(Should be able to find it in stores too)

Wheels: Sonax Full Effect

Doors cards: Folex.

Interior: Chemical Guys Nonsense (Dilute first)

Protection: 303 Aerospace.

Dis-colorization: The Nonsense cleaner will work but if you want to get a super deep clean, 1z deep plastic cleaner

I used to buy it on amazon but I don’t use it on my wheels anymore since they’re specifically for alloy. How it works is when your wheels are cool and in the shade you spray it on it chemically fights the iron particles on your wheels and you spray it off. I’d imagine that and a pressure washer could do most of the heavy lifting. It’s kind of expensive but worth a shot. Link below

https://www.amazon.com/Sonax-230200-755-Wheel-Cleaner-Effect/dp/B003UT3S6Q

I've heard this product does well with restoring the fenders

Mine get tons of carbon buildup as well (2013 R60). I have black tips so it's not obvious, but it's definitely there.

Cleaning tips: Get the following items:

• A long, thin wheel brush like this: https://www.amazon.com/Household-Cleaning-Multi-purpose-Motorcycle-Bathroom/dp/B071RYMKVP
  
• Some cheap microfiber towels.
  
• a PowerBall Mini or PowerCone (I like the cone better): https://www.amazon.com/Mothers-05146-PowerCone-Metal-Polishing/dp/B001MXTOKQ
  
• Decent all-purpose cleaner like Simple Green
  
• Decent wheel and tire cleaner. I like Meguiar's Hot Rims myself: https://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-G9524-Rims-Wheel-Cleaner/dp/B0009IQXM2
  
• Optional: Chrome & aluminum polish: https://www.amazon.com/Mothers-California-Gold-Chrome-Polish/dp/B006VU37AS
  
  Start by spraying the wheel cleaner in and around the tip. Let it sit for a minute then agitate with the wheel brush. Spray some water in there after agitation to rinse the crud out. Follow it up with a spray of Simple Green. Place the microfiber towel around the wheel brush and agitate again. This'll get the little bits that the stiff brush left behind. Rinse again.
  
  Then attach the powercone to your drill. dunk the powercone into soapy water. Put it inside the tip and spin it. This gets the inside pretty darn clean.
  
  You can clean the outside with the same products. It typically doesn't need it as bad and a simple wipedown with simple green and a microfiber is usually good enough. You can always shine it up with the chrome polish as well, if it needs it.
  

Hello! I bought a new car a little over a month ago and I wanted to do some basic cleaning with it, stuff that can be done maybe a couple times a month, since I never personally did that with my previous car.

Anyways, I live in SoCal so I'm trying to keep water usage to a minimum. This is my current "to-purchase" list that I'd like to buy soon;

ONR

iK Sprayer

Iron X

TRC Creature Edgeless 10pack

Mother's Tire Brush

ABN Wheel Woolies

Stoner's Reach Tool

Already have: Stoner's Invisible Glass, Costco multipack MF towels.

Will I still want to get a clay bar + wax for after washing, or is just washing every so often enough?

Nice. God the coupes are so pretty. I didn't like techno violet at first but it's grown on me.

The paint looks great but the trim could use some TLC, especially that front lip!

Get yourself some Forever Black trim dye. After you wash the car, clean the plastic with the provided cleanser and tape off where the paint meets the trim. Apply 2-3 thin coats. It'll make a HUGE difference in the look of the car.

Also invest in a wire tire brush and some good tire cleaner. You'll be surprised at how much dirt stays stuck on tire sidewalls and the difference a good cleaning makes! Of course spray your favorite tire dressing on and you'll be good to go!

Meguairs Hot Shine tire spray
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0009IQXXG?pc_redir=1409922746&robot_redir=1#immersive-view_1410241747997

So I am looking into buying some detailing supplies for doing wheels and was hoping someone could look over this list. It is probably overkill, but I would rather have everything I need I think.

Brushes

ABN Wheel Whoolies

Boars Hair Detail Brush Set

Mothers Wheel Brush

Cleaners

Iron X

Meguiars Hot Shine Gloss Tire Spray

Meguiars D101 APC

The total comes out to $113 but I figured I would only be buying most of these items once so it will be worth it. Also this list doesnt even have any sort of sealant so not sure if I should buy one of those also?

Only thing ive tried is car guys wheel cleaner

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014V9GFJU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Awesome! Thank you for the help.

For the Carpro Perl. Am i suppose to dilute it? Also for appying it do you recommend oine of these to apply it 1 2 3

I'm thinking #1 for applying the wax and #2 for the plastic trim.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a recommendation on a new wheel brush. I have the chemical guys one here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BJCHX8K/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Had it for a couple months but it's basically disintegrating, the fibers keep falling off. When it was new it was great but I want something that will last longer. The wheel woolies from ABN seem nice but I want something cheaper and I really only need one. Thanks

I have 34" all terrain tires with plenty of knobs on the sidewall. This works wonderfully. I spray my tire dressing/shine onto it, dab it onto a handful of spots around the wheel, then spread. Works great, really easy on the hands, a little up/down on the knobs gets on and between them really quickly, and I don't get any overspray on the paint, ground, or wheels.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B005DNJPSC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This is gonna sound like an ad, but i bought this meguiars wheel cleaner and it works amazingly. The grime falls right off.

Not sure why the main picture is showing a "mothers" rim cleaner now but the product information is correct.

Been slowly building up 'maintenance' type supplies and think I'm on the right track but have a few questions. Here's what I've got:

• Meg's Quick Interior Detailer
  
• 303 protectant
  
• Meg's Ultimate Quik Wax (spray)
  
• Meg's Ultimate Quik Detailer (spray)
  
• Some MF pads
  
• [Detailing brushes]
  (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CWBDBFU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
  
• Tire dressing applicators
  
• Mother's wheel brush
  
• Costco MF towels
  
  And probably some other random stuff. Most of what I've listed above I haven't even used yet! So some quick questions!
  
  

1. I have been considering getting some Meg's APC. Am I correct that I could use this on tires, light buildup on tailpipes, Husky (like Weatherbeater) all-weather floor mats? Any guidelines on dilution for these applications; and what else could the APC be used for?
   
2. For interior cleaning, can I safely use the Meg's QID with the brushes to get inside crevices including around switchgear without risk of short-circuiting something?
   
3. QID on a MF OK to clean nav/LCD screens?
   
   We had both of our cars detailed a couple months ago by someone who has a small side business in our neighborhood, so they are in pretty good shape, and just want to keep them that way. At some point in the future, I may consider getting a DA but for now just want to get better at regular maintenance.
   
   Thanks for reading this long-winded post!

Chemical Guys VRP. This stuff is amazing. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FJIT9BO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I'm curious to see how others in this sub wash and dry microfiber towels, drying microfiber towels (the ones that hold crazy amounts of water), and wash mitts. I usually just throw my normal microfiber towels in the washer with the appropriate detergent & dry them with low heat. But I am wondering if anyone has experience washing & drying the microfiber towels which hold very large amounts of water. I’m referring to towels such as The Double TWISTRESS & the PFM Terry Weave Drying Towel. These can hold several pounds of water. I’ve just purchased these types of towels & I am wondering do you folks just throw them in alongside the other normal microfiber towels?

Regarding the wash mitts, I usually throw mine in with the microfiber towels, but I have a specific wash mitt that I use just for the wheels. Is it safe to also throw this in with my other microfiber laundry load, or is there a risk here of contaminating everything else?

Lastly, on a slightly unrelated note, does anyone have a tip for how to clean dirty wheels/rims? I just purchased a specific wheel wash (AMMO Brute Wheel Soap), I was earlier using Optimum Car Wash. Using that, even with the Mother’s Wheel Brush & boar hair detailing brushes, I could never really get them 100% clean. I am hoping the new wheel soap helps. I also tried using Chemical Guys Premium Wheel Cleaner, but it comes out in such thick globs I can barely get even coverage. I want to try applying Gelee Wheel Protectant, but I am afraid to apply it since my wheels never get fully clean. Not only can I see the dust & grime, I can pick it up with microfiber towels.

Anyway, thanks for reading and thanks ahead of time for the help!

Heres how I detail both of my DR650s. As some of you might know I'm 100% rinseless. I don't think theres a good way to clean a chain with out water so I have always done a 2BM wash on my motorcycles. Now for motorcycle customers I don't clean their chain that is on them. That is a primary maintenance item that I will not do. The risk is far greater then the reward. Hope you enjoy the video! Edit: Side note took me about an hour for one of the bikes so about 2 hours for both.


List of everything I used:

• Lusso Auto Bathe: Not much suds but pretty good lubricity. I wouldn't use it again. I have filtered water so the water it self feels slippery.
  
  
• Meguiars Wheel\Tire Cleaner: Used for chain/wheels/tires. Really great cheap cleaner for wheels and tires.
  
  
• EZ Detail Brush: The blue brush in the video isn't sold anymore but this is still good.
  
  
• Boar's Hair Detailing Brush: Pretty good brush. Its a hit or miss on quailty. 1 of 3 that I have just keeps dropping fibers.
  
  
• Chenille Wash Mitt: Standard wash mitt works great.
  
  
• Ultima Waterless Wash Plus Concentrate: Amazing waterless wash. Great for drying as well.
  
  
• Double Mist Trigger Sprayer: Nothing special. Fun to play with.
  
  
• CarPro HydrO2: Works great 3 to 4 months of protection.
  
  
• Ryobi 40-Volt Blower: Great for yard work not so much blowing water. Get a corded blower mine was in the truck didn't feel like getting it out.
  
  
• Maxima Chain Wax: Works great but I would recommend DuPont Teflon Chain Wax Last longer. Just using up the last of the Maxima Chain Wax.
  
  
• Grunge Brush: Cleans the chain really well. Cleans 3 sides at a time means less work.
  
  Think thats everything. Enjoy!!

This is going to sound insane but if you head over to r/autodetailing you will see that one of the best things to get wax off plastics if peanut oil. Real peanut oil. It will work. I would follow it up with some kind of VRP (vinyl, rubber, plastic) cleaner/protectant such as Chemical Guys VRP

Don't scrape it/rub it with anything abrastive or you'll mar the plastic and it will always look streaky.

here is an amazon link https://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-Hot-Rims-Wheel-Cleaner/dp/B0009IQXM2

just be careful when using it, it irritates the skin and burns really bad if it gets in your eyes (it has when using the brush, unfortunately, and the burn lasts for a day or so)

Try this stuff

I've been using it for the past couple of weeks and it's been working great.

Can't go wrong w/ Wheel Woolies.

https://www.amazon.com/ABN-Car-Wheel-Cleaning-3-Piece/dp/B00L3KDUD0/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2V8RMFR4P8ZN6&keywords=wheel+woolies&qid=1574197344&sprefix=wheel+wol%2Caps%2C136&sr=8-4

You're welcome.
