Gtechniq C5 Wheel Armour + TE37SL Black Edition

Hey guys,

Just did a clean and coating of my TE37SL wheels. I know a lot of you guys have aftermarket wheels on your cars and after using quite a few different wheel cleaning products, coatings and protectants I found that Gtechniq C5 worked the best for my needs.

My entire car is Opti-coated and the C5 works in a similar way but for wheels. I decided I'd share this with you guys. The product does work really well and my brake dust, grime and dirt slides off a lot easier now.

Products used:
Sonax Wheel Cleaner
Gtechniq Panel Wipe
Gtechniq C5
Optimum Car Wash and Wax (No Rinse)

Equipment:
Two bucket
Two grit guards
Microfiber towel
Make up removal pad
Pressure washer/hose
