Nothing's wrong with the brake discs; they are just really dirty and I want to see them shiny and new again. The dirt on the discs is much more stubborn to get off; any suggestions? What's the difference between a coat of wax and a coat of detailer?

Thanks for the tips and product recommendations! Pics will come soon, I keep promising the peeps, but I've been too lazy to resize my photos so that they're not HUGE. Washing every weekend....? Bravo, bro. I don't think I can be that dedicated. Took me 2 hours to wash last weekend, and I can see myself doing it once a month in the summer months and less often in the winter.

Thank you too! I also noticed that there are a tonne of different products to choose from. I chose a soap and wax in one. How do you think it compares to using soap and wax separately? I guess it's like shampoo + conditioner in one, isn't it? LOL

It's all good. I think if a gal is serious about her Z and keeping connections with the car community, she'll keep active. I'm not weirded out by the creepers!

OH! HURT!

Well unfortunately nothing will make your brake discs look brand new out of the box again after use as it is a wear item. The brake pads are going to keep them about as clean as they are going to get as they are basically scrubbing the disc. You can use brake cleaner but just be careful where you spray it.

Coat of wax vs Quick detailer: Quick detailer I use (Meguairs Ultimate Quick Detailer) after a wash for touch up of any water spots that form if I was unable to get all the water off in time with the blower. It adds some protection to the finish and repels water between washes. Wax is going to add much more protection and gloss than a Detail Spray. Basically you would wax your car a couple times a year for protection and shine. Then wash and use quick detailer or quick wax (spray) to keep it clean and protected on a weekly basis or whatever frequency you wash.

You can use a soap and wax in one but it will not be as good of protection as using a good wax after a wash.

I feel this way also, you can check my post history.

My first wash was at a car wash. I rinsed with the hose, felt the brush and said **** that and drove away.

Now I just wash at my house with an old fashioned hose and bucket. I do cheat on the drying though with the absorber towels.

I use mothers wheel and tire cleaner, seems to keep everything down there clean. Try that? I know some people use different products and have good results too, mothers just works for me so if it's not broke don't fix it.
