Quick cleanup of my 06 Impala, Got foam? Hey everyone,
I just had shoulder surgery a few days ago and had some time to post my last clean up of my car. Pretty simple stuff but I recently purchased a pressure washer and a foam cannon and LOVE it.
Also I've been using Sonax full effect wheel cleaner religiously, even though it doesn't show that dramatic before/after on my rims.
Anyway here's a few pics of my fun.
Sonax being applied, neon green.
Starting to turn red
They were brushed and thoroughly rinsed.
I applied some UPGP to the rims about a month (1200 miles) ago and as you can see they are still beading up very nicely.
Next I used about 4 oz. of DP Xtreme foam in the foam cannon and laid down a layer of foam.
Then washed using 2 bucket method with DP auto bath. Blown mostly dry then followed up with Pinnacle Liquid Souveran.
A few days after the clean up I put the factory 18's on in preparation of the glorious Michigan winter soon to come.
Thanks for looking!!

Nice man, I've been using Meguirs and foam it up nice, clean it twice and hit it with there quick detailer, come up nice, but not as nice as that, might have to try that stuff out, I also give it a coat of 3 step meguirs every 3 months.

Hmm, your car seems much higher than my GXP or the wheels are smaller. I thought it was on jackstands in the first few shots.
Looks like the wheels came out spotlessly clean.
