Wheel wax - use it all the time and love it

I have been using the stuff for a couple of years
Wheels stay cleaner longer and clean up easier - seems like it lasts 2-3 months under normal circumstances.
I wax the inside of the wheels anytime I have them off and

Check out that link. Have never used the product, but from the description it is just for wheels. Protecting against brake dust (Ford's don't have a problem with that! )and against road wear and winter salt. My motivation for asking about this product was for the winter since in Kansas we can either get hit with winter hard one year and the next we may not see hardly any snow.

I have been using alot of Chemical Guys stuff lately as I placed a large order with them...They have alot of Great products and are highly underrated.

And they make alot of products that are re-labeled and sold by the more popular companies..

Their Pro Detailer Rocks and is ALOT like Poorboys Spray and Wipe...

i just use nufinish once a year wax. the stuff is super thick and last a long time. i apply it heavily and then i use a buff ball and a drill and buff it off. it will protect like no other.

I prefer to use a product made for a specific purpose, and I am very happy with the results.

Yup. I'm with you. I use Nufinish just before winter sets in, this time of year. I also use it again when the weather starts to warm up, around April. I use 2 thin coats instead of one heavy coat. It goes on easy and comes off with very little effort.

I also use NuFinish on the door jambs, the covered sections of the doors and tailgate and under the hood on the same schedule. I like that I only have to do those areas twice a year. I am basically lazy.

I used Wheel Wax for about three years on my Lincoln LS as well as my F150 and have had great results. I just applied it to the wheels of my new Mark LT this past weekend.

I agree that two coats work better than a single coat for lasting through a tough (salty) Michigan winter.
