any time chelo. Remember to use the the polish I recomended.Oh and for your paint use The mothers Step 1,2,3 Californi gold wax.It will tone your paint like no other. Good luck with your SOM

yeah, its a bitch trying to keep it clean. I use mother quick detailer spray on the paint and mothers alluminum mag and polish on the polished pieces.works great.
