Angry Detailing my own S

Finally got around to my own car. Never waxed the rims till now. I figured I might as well take them off and do a full detail on them.

Karcher Pressure Washer
Cam Spray
Grit guard
Mothers Mitt
Meguiars Clay w/ CG Speed Wipe
Meguiars Interior quick detailer (has a nice matte finish)
CG CWG
CG Bare Bones
CG/Smart Wax Rim Wax
CG PP
CG FP
CG Butter Wet Wax
CG Natural Shine
CG towels
Smart Wax tire gel
Meguiars NXT
Lusso Oro


















Gotta wax the nuts too

Nice job Byron!

Question though, what polish did you use on your paint? And what did you detail your wheel wells with? (I'm not familiar with CG's product line)

where did you get the big tub of the rimwax?

is it the actual chemical guys one or the smartwax one?

I have the smartwax one but mine came in a blue container (smaller than yours) with a silver lid.


How do you like it? smells good doesn't it?
