    Re: Tips for high end cars?

    Don't know if you'd be interested in an aerosol spray or not, but here are some pics of NXT Insane Tire Coating. Sorry about the crummy quality, I took them in the garage under significantly less than desirable lighting.









    Gives a nice shine to the tires. Can't vouch for durability yet, since this car is garaged all the time and I haven't used it on any of our daily drivers, but if you want lots of shine, that's the way to go.

      hmmm... make sure the interior smells fresh, and the fender wells are clean and dressed also.

      Theres a difference in a person who has to do it and a person who wants to do it

        Details - Palm Harbor, Florida posted a good list, to that I would add:
        1. A shop vac with a blower function so you can blow out the water in the door jabs, crevices and rubber seams.
        2. There is a lot of plastic on todays cars. Too many people are cleaning plastic with things that are made for glass, paint or rubber. Use a plastic cleaner like Plexus to clean plastic, and for the love of god ditch the Windex.
        3. Painters tape to prep the car and not get chemicals on rubber or plastic which can cause stains.
        4. For rims that have wide openings where you can really see the brake calipers, etc, you need to get long brushes to get behind the wheel and scrub those areas out.
        5. Dust in the air vents, brush them out.
        6. Microfiber towels, buy twice what you think you need.
        7. Steering wheel, dirtiest part of interior, you need to almost scrub that thing, you'll be shocked what comes of it.
        8. Don't forget trunk vacuum and spare tire.
        9. Have fun. If it feels like work, you're doing it wrong.
