    Re: Cleaning Fender wells (liner under the fender)

    APC and let dwell, brush, rinse, dressing. I like Meguiars D160 all season dressing and Meguiars D101 APC but I will also use a degreaser on occasions depends on what I use to clean the tires that gets used in the wheel wells also.

    I've actually used older spraywaxes I didnt like on wheel wells. Spray on cloth, work it in and wipe off.
    The large Wheel Woolie works well for fender liners.

    It’s got good reach, holds lots of soap like a mop, and doesn’t bend and stay bent like something like cheap Speedmaster style brush does. It will fit in those tight ones and it doesn’t sling.

    Re: Cleaning Fender wells (liner under the fender)

    Good ideas in this thread.

    Love having a truck. I can fit my arm and any tool or medium way inside and/or behind the tire.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    APC with the mothers brush and wheel woolie.

    Dress with Mckee's 37 SiO2 enhanced Tire Shine. Self levels, water based and lasts.

    If not against an oil based dressing, Griots Black Satin aerosol is convenient.

    And that leads to another question. What do you guys use to apply and spread the dressing??

    I use a bath sponge on a long handle

    Just correct myself and not feel I put a semi negative comment about Speed Master.

    I have heard the Speed Master brushes are good. I just don’t like the cheap wire wrapped style ones.
