Dude, Vandy, go to Walmart and buy yourself the Meguiars Wash & wax soap (around 8-$10) Its like, yellow or green in color.

Stuff is great.

I used to use the meguiars gold class wash and conditioner, but this new stuff, damn, it makes me so lazy, i dont need to polish my rims anymore, lol.


But yeah, a few times, i wash my car, wax, and BAM, it rains. That blows man.

Meguiars makes 2 different gloss for tires (gel)

I dont like spray ons.

[F20A CB7]

yesssss i need to use a gel 1. imma look now. thanks for bringing that up.

edit i found these 2.

[daovangphotos]

I stopped caring for that WET look. As long as my tires dont have dirt stains or brake dust stains, im fine with it.

just like kansass

[Night Wolf]

I look at the rain as an "extra wash"

[deevergote]

I wash my car in the rain. No need to hose it off. Nature takes care of that for me


As for tire shine, I would NEVER use a petroleum based type. Only use water based. The petroleum based ones dry out the rubber of your tires, causing them to turn brown and dryrot. Not dangerous, but it'll look like crap.

Wasn't there a video of a guy with a white automatic accord washing his car in the rain, his dad was filming the video?

[Bullhorn7]
