    Fuzion durability and maintenance?

    Just realized that my reply was never submitted. Oops. Those were amazing photos custmsprty. I'll probably use WGDGPS under my fuzion when winter rolls around. So, I originally started this thread with the idea of stretching out my jar of fuzion and I have since decided to stop thinking about...

    Fuzion durability and maintenance?

    Okay. Things seem to have gone a little all over the place here. I'm just going to respond to the people that talked to me directly, Mike and Silverfox: Mike, thanks for linking to that topic. I am already applying those techniques and more. It is nice to have the reassurance that someone with...

    Fuzion durability and maintenance?

    I can actually expect 3 months on a vehicle that is outside 24/7 and with no spray wax to boost it? Given the appearance, it really looks like a wax that would last weeks at most. I figured I would have to apply it monthly or spray something on it every week. If I can truly apply it every three...

    Fuzion durability and maintenance?

    On my never ending search for the perfect lsp for me, I have just recently acquired Fuzion and I'm truly impressed. I've never used a paste wax this easy before. I don't normally stick with an lsp for long, but I'm thinking about giving this one a longer chance. What durability are people...

    Polish only horizontal panels?

    Thanks for all the feedback. I was looking at my car and seeing what I want to make sure I do and what can wait if I don't have time. Let me ask this, say I do a light polish to my hood and doors. Is it going to be obvious that the others weren't done? Just trying to gauge if I should wait until...

    Polish only horizontal panels?

    Thanks for all the responses guys! I think I'm going to try to do 100% at once. I was leaning towards doing half now and half later, but I'm wasting whatever LSP I decide to put on if I strip it off to polish again. I think I can cut down my wash time significantly to get more time on the DA. I...

    Polish only horizontal panels?

    Hey guys, I searched but couldn't find an answer. I know most of you polish 100% of the vehicle with multiple polishes. I'm a beginner and the idea of spending 8 hours polishing my car is making me tired just thinking about it. My car is 3 years old and the vertical panels are in pretty good...

    wolfgang rinseless detail plan

    The deep gloss spritz is more of a lsp. I just want to maintain the lsp that I have, that's why the instant. Plus, I feel the instant will be more usable as a drying aid than something meant to be applied to dry paint. I'm using the sealant and not the coating because I am in no way a...

    wolfgang rinseless detail plan

    I noticed that too, I was just worried about the durability of WGDGPS as my car is outside 24/7. I was thinking I would need to boost it with every couple weeks to get it to last ~6 months or so

    wolfgang rinseless detail plan

    Hey guys, I've recently fallen in love with wolfgangs product line after trying them out recently and I was wondering if my detail plan would be a good use of their products: 1. Apply WGDGPS 3.0 to ready paint 2. Wash bi-weekly with Uber rinseless 3. Use Instant Detail Spritz as a drying aid...

    Your preferred method for detailing expensive wheels?

    Thanks for all the help guys! And good advice on the tire pressure! I adjust my pressure pretty often especially when seasons are changing because I like to keep it right at the sweet spot. I learned how to maintain cars mechanically before I found this wonderful site and learned about cosmetic care

    Your preferred method for detailing expensive wheels?

    Thanks for the kind words Joe and thanks to everyone for the suggestions. I'm getting a few different brushes to try and see what I like best. By the way, is it safe to use a wheel cleaner like Sonax on a bi-weekly basis? I know most only use it a few times a year, but I'd like to use it a...

    Your preferred method for detailing expensive wheels?

    Hey guys, I'm back with a question. Is the Daytona speedmaster safe or is it too stiff for comfort? I'm noticing that I generate way more brake dust than I thought and the amount of elbow grease to get that black perfect with car soap is quite a lot. I plan on using sonax every week to make...

    Your preferred method for detailing expensive wheels?

    I really appreciate the suggestion, but I'm not a fan of blow drying. I prefer to use towels. I prefer the big guzzlers for paint, but I need something smaller for wheels that's still gentle

    Current shopping cart is: bucket, megs hyper wash, sonax cleaner, Hydro2, wheel woolies, wheel mitt I just realized I'm missing drying towels. Are the black wheel microfibers soft enough or should I go softer? I think that's the last thing I need. Thanks again for all the help.

    Your preferred method for detailing expensive wheels?

    I finally was able to take a photo of the wheel. Thank you for all the input Mike! I know I'm getting myself into quite the challenge. I'll definitely be stocking up on those brushes and one of those wheel cleaners in case soap doesn't cut it. I'm afraid to put a coating on it right now though...

    Your preferred method for detailing expensive wheels?

    I don't have a picture on me, but here's a shot I found on the internet. I said Volk to give an idea of the style. Rays engineering makes the Volk brand and these wheels are made by Rays for Mazda Racing in the same style and forging as their Volk brand. So, the consensus so far is buy good...

    Your preferred method for detailing expensive wheels?

    Hello everyone. I did some searching through the forum and the site for what people use on their wheels, but with so many different types of wheels, it's hard to tell what works best on what. So, I decided to make a topic for my specific scenario and I hope that's okay. I am soon to be the...
