Are yours as clean as mine?

Post by Love_iTT » Wed May 28, 2008 2:27 pm

I decided that my wheel arches and wheels need a thorough clean after the winter, so today I started and thought that I'd show you the results of the first. Note: no leaking from the rear shock :wink:

Rear inner wheel arch.

Inside of wheel.

Finished.

The inner wheel arch was dried and waxed as was the wheel.

Nice eh? Just three more to go!

I decided against doing mine fully (just yet) its still like winter out there atm :(

Does look good when 'properly' clean though - my neighbors think I am nuts! What with the Snow foam, leaf blower/drier, wheels off etc etc I probably spend more time on my wheels than they do on their whole car! lol

What I want to know is - how do YOU get away with it? My Mrs goes mental, but I just tell her 'it has to be done', protection etc... ;)
