I'm awaiting my mini delivery and have all the car washing/polishing tools I need but I was just wondering when the best time to do the first wash/claybar/polish would be? Immediately after I take home the car? a couple of weeks?

thanks!

 

I received my car so well prepped that. apart from regular washing and a few touchups, I managed to go a year before I could plausibly justify the claybar and recoat routine.

If there's one thing I regret, it's not having made sure the wheels had a couple of coats of cheap acrylic polish on them immediately. Might have made all those little clots of brake dust easier to remove.

 

uhh... acrylic polish...(?)

 

Klasse is acrylic, but not a polish. Acrylic has some advantages - it is more heat resistive and it does not need to cross-link, just dry. So Klasse might be a good wheel wax if it wasn't such a pain to remove.
Stick with Wheel Armour.
