Default Waxing wheels

Would like some thoughts on what you use to wax wheels. Now waxing the LS460 isnt that hard but waxing the wheels takes a lot of time and me down on my hands and knees...does anybody have an easier way? Thanks

Try a touchless sealant like Carpro Hydr02 or Gyeon Wetcoat.

Beats the heck out of doing it by hand with a sealant or wax and literally just takes seconds.

The only better option would be to use a ceramic wheel/paint coating which is a more long term product that would last upwards of a year in some cases.

Make sure you follow directions to a tee when applying any product to avoid issues.

Thank you. It wasnt until I purchased my LS460 that I discovered that I had a second career in car detailing.
