In the nicest possible way, Lal B3n, that's the reason I don't want powder coated wheels. This will make me come across as a dick (Craig, before you chirp up and make the joke, "it's because I am a dick") but the orange peel on those is just not the look I want on my wheels. Darker colours show...
I saw you were not zipping along too quickly. Completely lost Jonny but saw him that evening for a comedy thing I'd stupidly booked... and Jonny isn't in today the lazy fucker.
Not to start up arguments again in this delightful thread, but if you can hear it working, what you're hearing is friction between the cloth and the paint surface. Friction means damage, plain and simple.

Please... "in 35+ years of cleaning cars"... Fall out removers, clay bars, ceramic &...
It categorically doesn't. Unless you are using it neat with added Wonder Wheels. Surprised as the rest of your post is spot on!
For multispoke, the mid-sized wheel woolie is very good. The EZ brushes are too, but I've found some people have reported catching the back edge of square spokes with...
