I'm thinking of adding a section under my A La Carte section of my menu.

I was going to name it the "Pro Wheel Treatment"

Will consist of the following..

Step 1: Wash (duh)
Step 2: Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner
Step 3: Iron X
Step 4: Clay
Step 5: Car Pro Eraser
Step 6: Optimum Opti-Seal
Step 7: Collinite 845

Any thoughts on this? I was thinking about charging $65-$80 for this.

I've thought of this as well. The only thing that has held me back is that to really do it right, the wheel needs to come off. I'm not sure I want to take on that liability as the customers who'd order this would have cars that I'd be a tad worried about sitting on a jack.
 
This is true, if you were to seal of the rotors and pads and leave the wheels on it'd be tough tog et to the wells of the wheels
 
Why would you do both #2 and #3? Isn't the point of Sonax is that it also removes iron?
 
I see that Sonax removes grime and brake dust but nothing regarding iron from what i've read.
 
Yeah i understand that however, i feel as if Iron X is more concentrated and will remove the excess after Sonax
 
Yeah I'd really think that would be a service where the wheels would have to be removed to hit the barrels well
 
Why waste the time if you can achieve the same results in less steps with less effort?

Use Iron-X or wheel brightener to clean the wheel once. Clay. Seal with hydro2. Dry.

The average Joe might know about Meguiars...goodluck with Sonax, Optimum, Car Pro, Etc...it doesn't mean anything to the customer. What means something to the customer...Is my wheel clean? Yes or no? Is it protected? Yes or no?

How you clean the wheel, the products you use, etc is not relevant to the customer.

I would think about how to clean wheels as fast and efficient as possible, then try to up-sell long lasting protection (coating) on top of the regular wheel cleaning. People will spend $50 or more per wheel for multi-year or permanent protection.

Opti-seal is like 3-6 months of protection right?

I don't know, but like the Sonax and Iron X, I don't think using a sealant and a wax is necessary either. I guess if you were always detailing Ferrari's and the like it might make sense, but as Scott said, most people don't care about (and want to pay for) that level of obsessiveness. Granted, I am not a pro, but I would use one or the other, not both.
