Great job/jobs... as most of us know it is hard work!

2 things I'm curious about.
The wheel specific spray/wax is to seal and keep brake dust from sticking to them instead of a wax/polish?
Z-AIO on the paint next to the rubber seals and on the painted parts of the door jambs to clean and protect them instead of a wax/polish?

Which spray/wax for the wheels are you referring to? I used a paste wax specifically designed for wheels, but yes thats what its purpose is.

Z-AIO IS a wax/polish. Its Zaino ALL IN ONE, its cleans/polishes/protects all at once.

I did a lil research on the swissvax and the Z-AIO.

I'm new to Zaino but just picked up some Z2, Z5, and Z8 Grand Finale and so far I'm pretty impressed, and this is after using Klasse pure Acrylic high gloss sealent glaze and Pinnacle Souveran carnauba paste wax preceeded by a cut and buff and 3M Perfect-It 3000 UltaFina SE swirl remover.

I just need the humidity to ease up here so I can do a few more coats!
I also picked up some of Eagle 1's Keep Clean wheel for the DD just for the heck of it?

Because i know a good detailing job when i see one. You post on a couple of sites so i see the same post maybe 2 or 3 times. It just seems like every post has about 90 pics or so & personally seeing your hands with a MF towel doesnt tell me much. Other than what your process was and how your outcome turned out. Eitherway my opinion shouldnt matter i just thought id post it. id perfer to see more after pics & less "heres my hand cleaning the wheels"

Gotta separate yourself from the pack somehow.
