stand back and admire your work knowing that your wheels are now protected from brake dust and road salt.
This should last you a good 6 months and only takes an hour to do .

First you need to jack up your car and place on axle stands and remove your wheels.

I'd advise you put at least 3 coats on the wheels, especially if you have taken them off the car, even then I'd still recoat them every 8 weeks, minimum.
My advice is from my own personal testing when I had my own detailing business, I also found poorboys wheel sealant to be more longer lasting.
All IMO of course, still good write up amigo

Chances of rimwax protection working 6 months is nil I'm afraid!
