The guy was pleased with the car. But he did ask me how come the bumper was not shining. I explained to him that the clear coat was gone. He said so wax want put it back on. I told him you are correct wax will not put it back on. Boy I about busted out when he said that. But I guess some people don't know that!

Looks awesome bro. Oxidation, to me, is harder to remove/repair than swirls. You might want to try out some of Megs #80 next time. It has oils (yes fillers!) that help paint that has been neglected.

How did you like DP's Wheel Gel? Was it strong enough? Tell me, I'm wanting to get some.

Justin, the DP Wheel Gel is AMAZING! Buy a gallon when you get it and I promise you will love it. If not, I will purchase it from you. A little goes a long way with it, you don't need to blanket the whole wheel as it "suds" up and changes forms when water is applied and gel is agitated.

I used it on a friends Expedition (I posted the detail) in which he had stains on his wheels he's never been able to get off. In a few seconds with a light wheel brush and the gel they were gone....we were both amazed! It's a little hard to spray in a mist with the sprayer it comes with(seems to go everywhere but where you want it to) and spraying with a stream would be wasting product so you may want to try a different sprayer on the bottle. Like I said, if you don't like it, PM me and I'll buy it from you.
