Cleaning Fender wells (liner under the fender)

[Breese147]

I either use megs apc or for really bad wheel wells I use ADM’Ss tire and rubber cleaner . I used to use Pearl for the dressing but since switched over to Megs hyper dressing. It’s too easy and too cheap to use megs HD. I have since been considering these new Sio2 Tire shine products and after hearing that someone had good results I would consider that to be my new contender!

I do mine just like Eldorado2k. Same brush and same Hyper Dressing. Hyper Dressing is cheap so I don’t mind reapplying.

For a cleaner, I use Meguiars APC at either 4:1 or 2:1 depending on how dirty they are. I use the fender well brush from Griots....I like it because it has a slight curve to it. For those fender wells that don't have much room, I use a Daytona Speed brush for those. For dressing, I use Stoners Trim Dressing (aerosol version). For the newer style 'cloth' fender wells, I just spray with APC and ht with the (SunJoe SPX3000) power washer.

If that product fares well in wet conditions I will consider it

This year was the second wettest year in history for our area, so it saw a fair amount of rain.

I put some on the wifes tires 2 weeks ago. 2 coats of the McKees sio2 enhanced tire shine that is. It made it through snow and all the slip for a few days after. Then through a waterless wash and it was still looking good. I applied another coat this weekend so I would have them protect before this snow storm but I’m impressed. Probably be getting a gallon when I get low. Best part is when you apply and move to the next tire, rinse and repeat. By the time you get back to where you started you are ready for another coat. Give it an hr to adhere good in cooler temps and wipe any excess...should be very minimal if you don’t over apply. And your good to go. I’m very impressed with this.

I use the McKees applicator and really like them and I have toyo at2 with the more aggressive of the sidewalls out and it does fine on them.

Sounds like I should seriously consider the McKees. And there I was getting ready to get Duragloss....

Here it is. The dirt wiped off easily using rinseless wash.

Same as Eldorado. It works.

That brush works fine with that HUGE fender gap. Good luck using that on a sports car or a lowered vehicle.

This reminds me that I need to jack up my car, pull the wheels, and get in there for the upcoming Mopar show in early March.

I have always struggled with this and I have unfortunately been using old washmits or microfibers that are strictly for wheel wells. My hands hands get all cut up haha.

I have not found a toilet brush that will satisfactorily fit without scratching. A lot of factory "sportier" cars seem to be coming power and lower from the factory, making it hard.

I've actually used older spraywaxes I didnt like on wheel wells. Spray on cloth, work it in and wipe off.

For reference my factory suspension.
