    Josh, I was using Purple Power but its really just to spot clean certain spots. I know its harsh and I didn't even dilute it, but its really all that will get off certain stubborn spots. I only use it on the rims once or twice a year. Other wise its just normal car wash soap to clean the rims.


    Use clay on those stubborn spots. I have a clay bar dedicated for use on my wheels. It is awesome and will not mess up the finish at all.

                      I don't seem to take pics of my car anymore, I haven't taken any since then. Its looking like shit again, the draught is putting a hamper on being able to wash the car/keep it clean.

                        That's a shame, my friend didn't take his mouldings off when he waxed his car. It took hours for him to get the wax out of there. I should pass on the information. I would really like to see some shots of your car, your photography has always been top notch!

                            Another testimony to the fruits of detailing.

                            I also heavily recommend Autogeek, been ordering from them since I purchasing my PC 7424. They always ship out fast.

                            The great consolation is that when washed again the amazing finsh will be there waitin' for you.

                            I spot a Pinnacle detailing kit! I myself have only used Liquid Souveran so far to use it as a deciding factor weather to fork out the $70 bucks for Souveran Paste.

                            Long time we didnt see some awesome photography of yours indeed.
