The Ultimate Wheel Care Guide (Part 3) (7360 views) 
Message: Here's my guide to Detailing your wheels:
[u]Before you start make sure you have the following:[/u]
[i]Clay Bar[/i]
[i]Non-Abrasive Paint Cleaner and Applicator[/i]
[i]Wax and Applicator[/i]
[i]MicroFiber Towel[/i]

Step 0: Make sure that the wheels are cool to the touch.
Step 1: Wash them as you normally would
Step 2: With a detail brush get down and clean the recesses as best as possible.
Step 3: Use your clay bar to clean up the surfaces.
Step 4: Use a non-abrasive paint cleanser to polish the surfaces. If you need to polish the wheels use the appropriate polishing material. Zymol's HD Cleanse, Lusso Paint Revitalizing Creme or the equivalent.
Step 5: Wax (I suggest that you apply a few coats) Your wax can be your regular car wax be that Zaino, Pinnacle, Zymol, Lusso, P21S, Mother's or Meguiar's. If you have chrome wheels DO NOT wax them as chrome needs to breathe.
