0 Chris@Adams Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 If you are washing in the garage (out of the sun) you can do your wheels last..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Ricky Bobby Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Make sure you wipe that car down with Rinseless/Waterless or Detail Spray after that 30 minute drive before you start polishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Kunal1223 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I usually use glass sealant, but tomorrow, I plan to do a full exterior detail minus polishing and I wanted to know if I would be okay applying Liquid Paint Sealant on the windows instead of glass sealant. I will be using LPS and would rather just save time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be using LPS and would rather just save time. While I've never tried it I'd suggest NOT using liquid paint sealant on your windows. It's made for paint not glass and I suspect will A) Leave a bit of a streaky mess on your windows it's made to bond with paint. Glass is not paint so won't really have any sealing effect on glass.
