Default CG Bare Bones Rocks

Just tried Bare Bones on my car yesterday and I have to say, I love this stuff. It really leaves the wheel wells looking dark and new without extreme oily shine. You can spray it and walk away, but I prefer to wipe off the residue and spread it more even. Sorry, I forgot to take before pics, but the wheel wells were pretty bad. Below are some pics of the results. Before spraying Bare Bones I washed the wheel wells with P21S TAW and some Meguairs APC and scrubbed them with a brush, but even after all that there was still white stuff left, but the Bare Bones took care of that. The scent is great, but very strong and after a while you get tired of smelling it, but it is absolutely a great product.

Looking good. I wish I had enough room between my tire and my wheel wells to show off just how well Bare Bones works.

I don't either, though it appears otherwise in those pics, but it was hard cleaning them and taking those pics.

I LURVE da Bare Bones!

As far as cleaning the wheel wells on my car goes, I think it's time I start using the jack to get in there and really give 'em the once over.

LoL, my car is lowered too but it's not as low as it used to be. I really do miss when it was that low because it would hug curves like a dream!

What's nice is having the Solo 418/419 to apply P21S TAW but it's kind of a pain since I can't do the same when I use Armor All Tire Foam for the dressing the wells.

I have yet to try my batch of this stuff and I have a feeling I'll have a difficult time deciding which one I'll really like.
