Detailing question....
Just wonder what you guys use to clean off your chromies after a day in sun? I don't wanna wash the whole care... just want to keep the rims nice and shiny. Do you use anything in particular? or do I just pull out the old wash bucket... and just do the rims?

I first use my cal car duster and then I use Wizards Mist and shine. Works great on paint, chrome and glass

I use a relatively wet Absorber and then go back over with a drier one. Works well and no scratches so far.

One of those little mini-dusters works great for a fast clean. Other than that, windex!

I use a California Duster to get the large grit off then will follow up with Meg's #34 Final Inspection and a microfiber cloth.
