    Wheels look great Jason. If I can give you a tip, it would be to use more wheel brushes...


    Is that Beyond Black I see on the tires?

    Looks like the OG does a really good job on the wheels. How often will you see this car? Will be interesting to see when it starts to break down and needs an actual wheel cleaner to help maintain them.

    I want a set of those wheel woolies so bad! I think they are getting some in this week, I'm going to have to call in a order. Thanks for the video.

    Thanks buddy... Ya well, I do have several others :p: but for these wheels this set up did the trick

    I will have the pleasure of seeing this vehicle daily, it's my DD.

    I love the woolies.. I'm sure you will too!

    Nope... Actually it's Optimum Opti-Bond... Very similar look, just a tad more sheen and durability

    Nice Video I really like me some clean wheels, I don't have opti-coat yet but I'm going to apply C-845IW on my friend's prelude rims because like me, he likes clean rims with little overall maintainence

    looks nice Jason. you said you havent found brake system that you cant get raceglaze brush between barel and brake caliper, wait till you get f430 scuderia with carbon ceramic brakes, they have almost no clerance :)

    hmm, just looks like opening is too small for brush to fit between caliper and wheel barel but since you cleaned it im sure it was enough. i didnt clean wheels on one i worked on so dont know :)
