Wow that looks great! I saw on twitter you guys had a ton of cars this weekend, here come all the writeups!

DetailersDomain · November 14th, 2011, 04:11 PM

thanks for following us, from last week we have a total of 11.

look out for them.

Zatrekaz · November 14th, 2011, 07:11 PM

Wow, thats amazing.

I really need to order some Sonax... I've been holding off for so long. My truck's rims are so caked with brake dust. The brakes make a TON of it. I need to use Sonax to clean them up good and then coat them with some Prima Wheel Armour.

You know you want to sell me some Sonax 50% off, right Phil?

sikedsyko · November 14th, 2011, 07:36 PM

^^Do it! Sonax is fantastic, especially on machined wheels.

Zatrekaz · November 14th, 2011, 08:53 PM

I know the Mustang does not need Sonax... maybe one application to get any embedded iron. However my Dodge Dakota has some silver wheels (unsure if its paint or machined) that have some major brake dust etching. Honestly, I think they need to be sanded down and re-painted. Regardless, with the ammount of brake dust the brakes make Sonax would be needed to keep them clean.

I just might bite the bullet soon for a bottle.

How long does a bottle normally last?

sikedsyko · November 14th, 2011, 08:57 PM

I did probably 8-10 vehicles with the 500ml bottle, if I recall correctly. But I'm not as liberal with it as some people like to be.

Longer than you'd think, the spray bottle has a great nozzle that doesn't spray out a ton but gets good coverage. I'd say 6-10 cars is a good range, I've probably done 5 and I still have a little less than half the bottle left.

Wait to you smell the stuff too

DetailersDomain · November 15th, 2011, 10:33 PM

Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner is our top selling wheel cleaner.

Regarding the smell, not sure when you bought it last but it now smells more citrus then hair perm.

Thanks for looking and posting up your thoughts.

dannyboy281 · November 15th, 2011, 11:14 PM

Amazing work on the M3 Phil!

2001bullittgt · November 21st, 2011, 04:36 PM

wow....just WOW, im sorry but could you do a writeup on what chemicals/waxes you are using?

my bullitt could SERIOUSLY use a detail like that. ive started using adams polish products lately, but havent tryed any of their waxes and such. and their wheel cleaner is no where NEAR as good as whatever it was you used!
