Washing the Wheels
Some tips on this part:
1. Start from the bottom down
2. Start from the inside of the wheel to the tire
3. Clean your calipers last
4. Spray APC on wheel wells let it dwell then scrub with wheel well brush
5. Spray APC on tires let it dwell then scrub with tire brush

This is when I take a lug nut brush and brush out emblems, our grille and my decals etc.

Now She's all dry
Sorry I couldn't cover drying very well needed to ensure no water spots happened.

Here's how your wheel should look after being dryed. Just bare and dull

I generally do two sprays into the pad and then apply. Then wait one minute then lightly buff off any dressing residue for a nice sheen.

Now I use barebones and spray it all over the wheel well then wait five minutes and come back and buff off any residue just as you would buff off a tire
