Everyone Washes
Hey everyone.........I just washed my whip yesterday and was thinking "Everyone washes the inside/back of their rims, Brake discs and wheel wells right? LOL
Ohhhhhh maybe that is just my OCD Actually it makes a big diffference, when it is never gets dirty it is easy to keep clean! |

I pay more attention to what is seen, I'll run a mit around the inside but I don't sit there and get every nook and cranny.
I don't touch the break discs or wheel wells, just run the pressure washer over them.

My tire guys love me. OCD in full effect, front, back, behind the spokes and everywhere I can get to. I do even do the jams and inside the gas cap every 3-4 washes, or once a month.

Anybody who does not Armor- All the INSIDE of their tires at least once per week is doing a piss poor job....

I actually remove the tires and wheels, clean the calibers, back of the rims and tires, and apply tire dressing to the inside of the tires as well as the inner fender splash. I also was the undercarriage and mufflers.

My wheels and wheel wells still look brand new. Yea, I got the bug.
In the winter I wipe down the suspension and underbody.

Ive always had the bug, my best buddy who died a couple of years ago used to make fun of me cause I crawl under my car and clean the underside. On my SS, I do the same and clean the inside of my rims before I wash the car using wheel cleaner and I also use metal polish on my exhaust canisters (lol) and then follow up with wax...
