Always do your wheels first, rinse the water out, then do the body. Why would you let your body panels sit and dry while you do your wheels?

 

What i usually do when using a hose-rinse method is do the entire body, dry car, clean/rinse wheels. Touch up any wet spots on paint.

If i'm using Optimum No rinse, I do the entire car and then move to the wheels.

If i'm doing two cars I do one car's body, then the tires, and then the tires on the 2nd car. Then I rinse out the bucket, get new water/soap in, and then do the 2nd car's body.

I have been using Duragloss Aquawax for a spray wax solution after every wash. Actually bought a 128oz jug of it online recently because I use it so much.

 

How long does it last? I use klasse and while it's a PITA to buff, it says it lasts 4-6 months.

 

I'm not sure how long its supposed to last. Some say "Months" but I don't believe it for a wax. So I apply every time I wash...usually. Always beads up.

When I used Klasse....I usually did it twice a year (Fall/Spring), and then waxed the car every so often. I think if you do Klasse every 6 months, keep the car clean, and apply a spray wax every other car wash or so you'll be very well protected. I did similar to my old car and after 4 years the paint still looked new.

You can find the Aquawax at carquest.

 

you mean the clouds?? Otherwise the small specs I'm sure is dust on the lens. That was my old tl by the way

 

I'm not a fan of shiny tires. I like them to have a nice dark sheen without being over the top glossy.
