On the verge of madness from lack of detailing this winter my new HRE’s were delivered and sitting in the garage Friday waiting for me to come home. Unboxed and carried to basement where I set up equipment and products to prepare the wheels for installation on my TT RS in about 4 – 6 weeks. I...

Exhaust, wheels, suspension, led interior lights and other minor items done. Polished with HD Speed and Meguiar's cutting disc. Ran out off time so 2 quick coats of Opti-Seal to finish. Will try Poxy next time. Had used Optimum GPS first time when car was new (1 month 600 miles ago) and IMHO...

Opti-Coat was my choice and that of most respondents for sealing new wheels. UPS dropped off new HRE's with Michelin Super Sport mounted yesterday. Got to it first thing this AM. Pretty clean but with the expected black rubber marks and sealant residue from mounting, no scratches, small...

Have set of HRE wheels inbound and want to seal them before they go on car (way easier). Thinking of using Opti-Coat but would like input. Thanks.

Own a Meguiar's G110v2 and an PC 7424 (old version), DA user since 2004 or so. Tried a Flex PE 14-2 150 Rotary Polisher for half hour or so on test panel and really enjoyed it, no vibration, quiet and smooth. Only a hobbyist detailer, will my results be any better? Did not seems that difficult...

Will be taking delivery of new LR4 this week. Will wash, clay, polish if needed and protect. Very comfortable with all that. May have dealer leave on exterior plastic film. Have never removed this and will be working outside at about 50-55 degrees. Any tips or tricks? What product would you use...
