In a pinch and/or on the cheap tire foam will work on the wheel wells in substitute of Hyper-dressing. But since it's concentrated HD is cheaper in the long run.

Yes you'll have to re-wax after you clay. But once you do it you'll not do it any other way again.

I love that burgandy color. Almost as much as the blue.

 

X10 is not a product, i believe that he was agreeing with the previous posts about the wheel wells.

Hope that clears it up

 

Correct on the X10...

As far as a 4wd with dirty wheel wells. Ever cleaned mud off your wheel wells? It's not the most fun. HD seems to make it easier to get dirt and grime off. APC+ eats right through any dirt/grime/mud.

What's wrong with a clean truck, bubba?

To the OP - I like the truck man. Merely stating my opinion on your paint. A good detail could do a lot for that rig.

 

yes, you are wrong. Always wash the vehicle after you clay it, for one of two reasons. A) you get any of the remainder of the clay lube off the paint, B) there can be miniscule ammounts of paint contamination that was dislodged but not picked up by the clay bar. so yes, always wash after clay, its a bad habit not to.

 

I thought once you got done claying a section you dried it off and just went to the next section?

 

No need to wash after claying. If you're using a quality clay bar and QD as well as using the proper technique there is no reason why you should need to wash after claying. Trust me.

 

I trust you thump, i've seen your work. Don't worry buddy, I'm on the right OCD path.

 

I'm glad to hear it, even though there are a lot of other people who are much more knowledgeable than me in this forum. I take that as a compliment. This forum is a wealth of knowledge and you'll be on the right path.

 

x2! Just read the sticky and you will get all the info on preparing the paint you need.
