thanks guys

genesis- from what I read yes, I used the speedy clay towel and was not hard at all
however from your sig 2013 car I doubt your clay picks up very much, still recommend though

And that's how it's done! Great job.

Clay first to get and surface contaniments off, do the baggie test to make sure. Mike Phillips covers it very well.

Yes its not a must do but more of a MUCH MUCH better if u do..
Today I did a 3 week old truck and you'd think it didn't need it but afterwards u could see on the clay ALOT of stuff was removed..

Oh and I noticed you have the rust problem on the hub/rotor area just like mine. Soooo annoying.

and had the "rotor hats" painted as well

The WG twins are hands down the easiest and most consistent products I've ever used. Perfect for not only beginners but seasoned pros.

No matter what the paint, these twins perform perfectly every time. Not many products can make such a claim.

heres the pic
had a shop do the painting for me,
just washed the car and the rotors always have that effect on them till I drive it
