Wheel well/undercarriage shine

Easy. What do you all recommend to spray on your wheel wells/undercarriage? I know that all of you say to use whatever tire shine you want to die, but I'm all out of that (NXT Extreme Shine) and was wondering what I should pick up this time. Looking for LOTS of shine that will last a long time and not make a mess. Also, it needs to be in spray form.

At least yours still has black paint on it... And I guess I should add, for now, I'd like for any of the products to be available from the local Wal AdvanceZone.

Even the Ford upgraded Orange Peel paint looks good.

I never really knew what that "orange peel" meant, but I can really see it in the reflection of the white pole in the bumper

A few times a year (sepecially after winter) I load up a garden sprayer with a 50/50 mix of water and Simple Green and soak down the whole undercarriage, backs of the tires, springs, etc. (make sure NOT to do this if you just waxed the truck because it will strip wax off your paint if any overspray gets on it!). After this, hose it out really well everywhere...take your time rinsing out behind everything, up in the frame, up inside the bedsides, etc. You'd be suprised what kind of nasty brown water comes out of there even if you think it's clean already. I get the cheapest tire foam I can find and spray it on as much of the black frame, spring, wheel well, etc. areas I care to. I save the good stuff for the tires.
