    Collinite Wheel Wax?

    I finally got around to waxing my new winter wheels with Collinite 845. I put on a thin coat, and just left it on thinking I'll buff and put on another coat before I get the tires mounted in a few weeks.

    Hello from Portland

    I'm brand new to the detailing world after being convinced that it made no sense to take my brand new Audi A7 to a car wash. Well, one thing led to another, and now I have grit gaurds, mitts, soap, Sonax, wheel brushes, and a Griot's 6" RA kit on the way. I'm planning on getting started...
