I like to rinse around the fenders, clean the wheel and tires first then wash the car. Dry the car then dry the rims and tires. Apply sealant on wheels, coat the whel wells and the tires then start to polish.

By sealant on the wheels what do you suggest? Just your run of the mill wax such as Eagle One Nano Wax to seal the wheels or is there actual wheel/rim wax or sealant that I can put on the wheels?

You don't do wipedown after glaze.

The TSR, FG and DGPS are actually Wolfgang products, but Menz was involved in the process so I guess it's alright to say that. lol

I agree with Sal. I always like to do anything with the wheels first. I've been using DG AW on the painted areas of my wheels and really like the results and durability thus far.

When do you do wipedown then? After the TSR 3.0? I thought that you had to do it to rinse the remaining polish off of the vehicle... Please correct me.

You should try DP Wheel Glaze. Lasts a long time, is easy to use, and really helps in preventing brake dust buildup.

As far as the wipedown, it is never needed with either of the Wolfgang polishes. There are no oils/fillers in either product. You would have to do a wipedown after using something with fillers, like 3M Swirl Mark Remover, or something like Meguiar's D151.

Thanks for your responses this helped me out. I will try the wheel glaze as well.
