claying wheels?

Is it safe to clay the wheels; Forte F7 Klutch, Black? Just want to make sure before I do it in the next couple of days. And if anyone is wondering why, it is because paint overspray got on them and that is the only why I know of to get it off.

worth a try, alot of people will probably tell you to throw it away after using on your wheels though

Yes, use the clay. I'd use it on your windows first and than the wheels, and than toss it.

Do I need to buy special wax to use on the wheels afterwards, or just use regular wax like I would use on the body?

And yes I do plan on throwing it away after I get the wheels done, glass is already done using 0000 grade steel wool.

A sealant like NXT or Poorboy's Wheel Sealant. Nothing canuba based, it won't hold up to the heat.

When using clay on the windows what are you guys using to lubricate the window. Are you using some type of QD like for the paint or a window cleaner?

Use the same stuff you use on your paint. Than follow up with a window cleaner like Stoner's Invisble Glass.
