  1. I know this isn't totally a detailing question. People say to store tires in a sealed plastic bag and not to use a tire dressing. I just bought a set of used rims and tires and cleaned then thoroughly with deep wheel cleaner and all purose cleaner. I plan on sealing the rims with quick sealant or super sealant. But is it OK to use svrt on the tires and seal them up? I just feel like I dry the tires out with the apc and dwc.

  2. Yea, I'm sure it has a lot to do with the paint or the pressure you apply while drying or washing. Just try less pressure like other have said. Let the wash pad and drying towel do the work. It shouldn't take pressure to remove dirt or especially water. If dirt is stuck let some soapy water dwell on the area for a while maybe even try some waterless wash. I heard that works well for stuck on bugs. When drying try laying the towel and dragging it off and less of a buffing action maybe. The car that I just bought has super soft paint and noticed some swirls already after just one wash. So my technique needs a little work. My 04 Silverado had a lot harder clear coat than the new wrx I just got.

  3. I get into this arguement way too often with my father in law. He says i need to put "hard shell" wax on it and it will fill in the scratches underneath his door handle. he says lots of coats will fill it in. I used the mss on his old car and he continued to tell me that it didnt last a month and he wanted his other waxed used. Even when blatently you could see the mss beading water. So now i no longer help him take care of his vehicles. Last week he was using scotch brite to "clean" his chrome rims. Luckily i stopped him right after he started :willy: :willy: :willy:
