I dont have a buffer

When I first got the car my uncle had one and I used it. But since then he has gotten rid of it

 

are you talking about polishing wheels or the car lol

 

The car. You need a buffer to polish it

 

i always til last year did everything by hand lol. clay bar it then use a cleaner/polish and the put your final coat on it lol

 

Yeah I clay bar and wax by hand but never heard of polishing by hand. Learned something new!

 

i would always take the step one from mothers and do it by hand or even the step 2 glaze and do that by hand lol. also used the meguires paint cleaner as a step 2 after the clay bar lol

 

Is it as effective by hand?

 

well when i used to detail cars thats how i did it and i still had people coming back and new ones so it must have worked for me and thats how my dad and i always did our cars before hand and it worked great. the 2 vettes i did all by hand in the pics i posted on here

 

Then id say it works pretty good lol

Does anyone wax their wheels?

 

yes it does hahaha. i used to wax my stock tc wheels a lot easier to clean lol. i havent waxed these ones because im gonna be powder coating them soon

 

I think ill keep a coat on these. Yeah I would imagine it would keep the dirt and gunk from stinking as much

 

when i put wax on my tc wheels they were super easy to clean afterwards lol one wipe and they were clean lol

 

Did the wax make them shine a little better?

 

yeah it made the metallic flake pop a lot more that was in them lol

 

Ill wax mine next time I wash it

 

there you go and let me know how it worked out lol

 

Its supposed to be cold this weekend but if next week is nice Ill do it then

 

post pics haha. btw where you at in kentucky?

 

Bowling Green ky. Practically on the Kentucky/Tennessee boarder

 

oh ok gotcha. im going to Louisville for the trucking show at the end of march with my company lol

 

Oh nice. Yeah Louisville is about 2 hours away from bg. Is the truck even being held at that huge convention center?

 

oh ok damn lol yeah its there right by the airport. i work for a company and all we deal with is brakes, suspension components, leaf springs basically every under the cabs except the motor lol. i went last year as my first time and this will be my 2nd time. we get in wednesday before the crowd gets their and then thursday we go and talk to some of our companies we do business with then we leave thursday night lol

 

Nice! I usually go up there every year when they have the big boat show at the convention center

 

Yes, I always wax my wheels.

Helps keep brake dust and other road grime from sticking.

 

Nice. How often do you do it?
