Basic tire/wheel dressing question

[thebamboo23]

Okay, so, after you have cleaned the tires and wheels.

Do you apply the protected coating right after you have completely cleaned the wheel, or after you have cleaned all four wheels and have washed the car?

I'd switch the trim and waxing steps... maybe i'm just sloppy, but i always get some wax on the trim.

I agree

My routine usually consists of dressing trim and tires last, but this really depends on how long I will have a car.

The tyres and trims tend (not always) to be the least durable part of the process. As a result we recommend to apply products to these area last to ensure that nothing else the user does might compromise this. Ultimately, as long as no cleaning products come into contact with them after the dressings are applied, it should make minimal difference.
