Well I assume it's a similar clear to my challenger. If it is you shouldn't have a major problem with it. Good luck!

I've got a 2004 Rubicon. Just used the :pc:on my clear a little over a week ago. Still looks GREAT.

 

You will be pleased. Be care full with all the sharp edges/objects on the wrangler. It eats up pads. And once they start coming apart there are pieces everywhere. Use some painter tape and tape the sharp edges/objects.

 

Uploading pics from camera. Will post soonest.

The victim... AJ says I'm rough on my pads!

 

 

 

 

Didn't have any pics of taping as I didn't do it! Thus the pad abuse. :(

Looks great!

 

I'm with AJ... lol Mine still look new, but my cars all have curves... lol

 

Do they still put the I-6 in them? I thought they switched the 3.7L which IMO was and always will be a mistake. Hoping the new Pentastar (or what ever they're calling it) gets dropped into it.

Not sure how hard on the jeeps. Let us know how it turns out!

I like that extra detailing tool you have there on the left. Detailing arsenal just isn't complete without that.

Thanks...

 

Mine has the I-6. Pushing around 240hp. Tuned, headers, banks cat back and 410 gears! This thing screams off the line. One draw back is the top speed of 85 mph! And that's in spurts... 70 is cruising speed.

My black on black Sahara 2010 cleans up nice. Will avoid car washes with their indoor-outdoor carpeting dangling old dirt, grime mixed with Mens Room smelling soap. They scratch the hell out of a car. I had polished and waxed and it came out black and deep. Too many edges is correct and those door mirrors hold water so long that you could use them for a canteen. They drip and run water for days. I have blown them out and they still ooooooozzzee water. Water runs on black, not pretty.

I shutter everytime I pass one of those car washes!

 

I use compressed air (100psi) on my mirrors
