    Default Detailing my DD's

    so I just spent the past hour or 2 removing all the wheels and cleaning each one (inside and out) and then cleaned the wheel wells...

    I still haven't even cleaned the car yet, still need to do that clay bar it, and wax it. then do the interior.

    after that I have my other 2 DD's to clean.

    am I sick? does anyone else remove their wheels and clean the wheel wells of the car?

    I only do it at the end of winter, usually around April or May. I pressure wash the wheel wells, every corner of the body panels, take off the side skirts and the whole underbody of the car.

    When I first read the title of the thread I thought it meant something completely different.

    When you guys clay do you use a quick polish spray so that the bar glides over the car or do you just keep the car wet?

    I use meguiars detailing spray. Water from my experience just doesn't do it for me.
