yah, i hate dirty wheelwells as well.

the undercarriage spray that griots sells is super super slick, so i recommend laying down some newspaper or something if doing it in your garage or driveway...or do it on a neighbhor-you-dont-like's driveway. :D

This stuff is the same. Super slippery and will stain some surfaces. I'm considering doing it on a neighbors driveway. If they don't leave soon, I have plenty of plastic I can put down :tup:

I'll have to look into the "invisible undercarriage" stuff. Now i just use tire black/shiny stuff under there.

Adam's Super VRT is an amazing trim dressing IMO. It has a great finish that isn't glossy, and it's not greasy like a lot of products. I use it to treat everything from rubber trim to engine bay plastic to my tires :tup:

Superb driving day. Early and warm spring after ZERO winter! Love it! Dropped Z off.
Car is getting polished/paint corrected. Summer wheels are being refinished and PSS to be mounted. Should have it all together this week or early next! TIME TO DRIVE :) :happydance: :driving:

Yesterday I gave the Z a good washing :tup:

I also tried out the Adam's Invisible Undercarriage product. Unfortunately, I only had time for one wheel well :icon17: It took two applications of their All Purpose cleaner to prep the linings for treatment (almost 50K miles worth of dirt). It looks fantastic so far, but I am really hoping that it lasts a while. It makes it looks new again, very similar to my experience with their VRT on the plastic bits under the hood :tup:

I actually have some, but they're on the camera at home. I'll post up some pics when I get a chance :tup:

Tuesday: I received the contents of the three Adam's mystery boxes I purchased last week. I got a bunch of new stuff to try out and calculated almost a 45% savings over their normal pricing.

Wednesday: heading outside right now to wash the Z. I'm thinking I'll try out the Invisible Undercarriage product on my wheel wells. It ought to be a good test, seeing as they have never been treated (~48K miles) :tup:

Let me know how you like those towels please. I am in need of a couple dozen polish/wax removal microfibers.

JARblue, come wash my cars.

I got a neglected MS3 that needs your touch and my Z could use a good clay barring.

They are fantastic towels and priced exceptionally at The Rag Company. If they're good enough for the Junkman they are too good for any of us :icon17:

Will have to check them out. I am VERY picky about what touches the paint of my car. If I never have to polish on the super thin nissan paint, I would be in heaven.

I was out late last night and got to enjoy the road home alone. It was great.
