    Specific question about Yukon Denali wheels with inserts

    Hello, I have have the same inserts but in chrome. I would definitely remove them at least once or twice a year. I have a coating on mine and dirt does get in there. I recognize your truck. Did you post it on the Tahoeyukon forum? If so, that would be a great place to ask as well. Lou

    sorry but that is the best I could do for a picture. The fake would trim has the fine scratches. I used the ultimate polish with the lake county white pad. I used the hand held pad. I also have the 5 1/2 inch orange pad that I may try. I also have plastic x that I will try later.

    What's the real deal with WG Uber?

    Going back to one of the original questions. Will using uber, either as a wash or detailer, effect the sealant that is on the paint? I have Griots poly sealant on my truck now and would like to know if it is ok to use this on my truck or should I use Griots wash or the new one Nick is talking about?
