Well I finally got all my parts in for my wheel detailing stand. I been wanting to design this for a long time and when I finally got this done someone else beat me to making one. I’m not completely finished with this one yet but wanted to share it with you all.

I'll buy one from you when you're finish

I did a wheels off on my 88 year old Father's Silver 2005 VW Touareg about 2 months ago. Yeah, in Chicago, and it was not warm, 40's at most.

While this SUV has less than 10K, the inner Barrels were solid rust brown, horrible. The vehicle was clean, had a coat of Opti-Seal. I had finally gotten him new Tires (Hankook) from Pep Boys the month before, yeah, the second set. The original tires were as hard as rock being 15-16 years old.

One by one, off they came. No Jack Stand, but I had no plans of going under for anything.

Two applications of Iron-X, and that only lifted about 80-85% of the crud. Then APC (LA's Awesome, I wasn''t about to spend a fortune on high quality APC.)

Busted my tookass, took 2 days. 2+2 I wanted to coat them with CP DLX, but knew it was just too cold. Used Collinite #845 instead, figuring better than nothing.

Tried that Sonus Motor Coat for the Wheel wells, garbage, a mistake buying that junk, used WG WETS on all plastic wells after full cleaning.

All new Center Caps, (needed them, figure a Dealer jamoch "shop turd" stole his originals at some point, they were beat to hell) How does such get beat on such a low mileage vehicle that resides in a garage 365 days a year? Cleaned gobs of Cosmoline off all Chrome Lug Nut Covers, have to use that stupid little dopey tool that looks like a Hook to pick your nose with that VW throws in the back.

Wheels otherwise were in very nice, almost like new shape considering, and once all cruds were gone. I knew they had potential for looking great again with some work and products.

VW, the most idiotic vehicle I've ever seen in my life bar none. Battery under the driver's seat for one, how user unfriendly and retarded german engineering has gotten.

:buffing:Thanks ClearVue18.
I’m still working on this one. I want to make some small changes to it. But over all really happy with it!

 

[Dano shine]

Nice job! I like the quick jacks so easy to take along with you to use!

I do my wheels once a year in the spring when i take the car out of storage. At the same time i service the brakes and clean the inner wheel wells. I use a workmate to lay the wheels flat on and wash, clean and wax the wheels prior to reinstalling. Works for me

The other company may have published their's before you but that's ok. Now you can learn from their customer feedback and improve on them. I learn from my competitors everyday which is why I can beat them at every turn .

Oh never said anything about a filter.. I mean I wouldn’t ever even think anything like that about you.. That’s like something the Houston Astros would do.

No, I’m talking about how you went out of your way to take the wheels off the car, yet decided to half arse it... Yea you heard me. I say if you’re gonna take the wheels off the car, why not take it a step further and take the tires off the wheel! How else are you gonna clean underneath the tire?!

It’s Super Sunday, You’re slacking off! And I’m throwing the Flag! Lol.

This is how to really detail a wheel, Clearview.

Hey look, you missed a spot!

How can you sleep at night knowing there’s dirt, tar, and even burnt rubber underneath your tires?!

Not me.. I sleep well my friend.

Fully dry the wheel...

It’s coming along pretty good.

Like brand new.

Clean enough to bring inside the house...
Actually it’s clean enough to eat from. That’s why I’ll be serving guacamole from this wheel later today during the Superbowl. Now that’s a detailed wheel!

@Clearview. It’s 2020. It’s time to quit slacking off and step your game up! Next time you put a car on jacks and take the wheels off, make sure you also take the tires off the wheels and get it fully detailed! And maybe next time I won’t have to throw the Flag! Lol.
