•Whether it's "The Two Bucket"; or,
a "Hybrid version" of the RW/WW
car-washing processes...
-This has become my favorite
"wheels-off" detailing method:
•First:
-Make sure the vehicle has undergone
your chosen washing processes...
(clean & dried).
•Secondly:
-Using proper jacking/jack-stands protocol:
remove tire/wheel assemblies from the
vehicle, so they can undergo their
washing processes (clean & dried).
•Next:
-Perform the necessary prep on the
wheels/tires, for them to receive the
application of their respective sealing
and dressing products.
-Seal wheels; dress tires.
•Then:
-Install wheel/tire assemblies
(torque lug nuts to spec)
-Reverse the prior jacking/jack-stands
operation---returning the vehicle
back to the floor.
•Now:
-Cover the wheel/tire assemblies.

•You can now correct the vehicle's paint
without any worries about contaminating
the tires/wheels.
•Works for me. YMMV.
