    I miss the old Darren this would have been an hour long video.. but in all do respect I’ve learned so much from you over the years, one of the most informative detailers on CZcams!

    I use 303 fabric guard on the carpet area of the wheel well . It helps cleaning up that area faster and also the rainy season it helps as well to repel the dirt off the area

    Any recommendations I’ve got a brand new car 2024 Subaru outback and I ran over some paint and it appears that my back wheels have that felt well. It is latex paint. I use soap and water today with the scrub brush but didn’t work too well any recommendations would be helpful.

  • @frogmedic6428
    @frogmedic6428 Před 6 lety

    Darren! What do you think about that Croftgate tire shine plus. It really does allot for me. Love the application, appearance and wide range of uses. I somehow keep going back to it in the water based world of dressings. You rock man !

    • @autofetishdetail
      @autofetishdetail  Před 6 lety

      I guess I haven't seen any Pan the Organizer vids to know when and how he is using the music. Not sure where my daughter is getting this music when she edits. She is in charge of that now.

    • @Braedenfish
      @Braedenfish Před 6 lety +1

      Auto Fetish Detail Seriously? The music? If u know everyone on CZcams's ins and outs....maybe u spending too much time on CZcams! Can we maybe focus on the relevant....like the info? Or how bout the vehicle? Our life? Ice cream? Something. Damn. Please let your lil girl know we appreciate her time as well as your insight man! Great she still has time for dad! Oh n probably the only time terry is appropriate in detailing....I lay an old solid color beach towel over the tire before I spray anything on face of tire or wheell well..rain n dressed tires (from even a lil overspray) do not mix well.

    @williamclick9771 Před 3 lety

    I didn't know they made wheel well dressings. If I may ask what are they? I'm just starting out as a beginner detailer. I know about tire and rim dressings. Where can I buy a wheel well dressing? Thanks much for your video.

  • @jamesimmel3896
    @jamesimmel3896 Před 5 lety +1

    Thanks for making this video. I never thought about detailing the wheel wells. Is there a way to prevent my rear wheel wells on my truck from rusting from the inside out like so many trucks seem to do? Thanks again.

    • @gabr0502
      @gabr0502 Před 2 lety

      Have you found anything? My old Ram has this rust problem and my 2011 Maxima is starting. My Maxima is rusting from inside a fold in the sheet metal, so not really like I could blow/wash it out.

  • @inxs13
    @inxs13 Před 6 lety +1

    That’s awesome stuff. I use Meg’s hyper dressing mixed down to a “satin” level for that area. Seams to serve me well and the price isn’t too painful. Not sure I’m a huge fan of fabric in wheel wells. Always seemed weird to me

    • @autofetishdetail
      @autofetishdetail  Před 6 lety +1

      It seems weird to me also, but have found on the mud stained felt liners it has some good effect at covering/hiding the staining at least temporarily.

  • @Sinegal98
    @Sinegal98 Před 6 lety +1

    Hi Darren! How do you deal with road tar in wheel wells? I found that most of tar removers can whiten black plastic that is used in wheel arches.

    • @autofetishdetail
      @autofetishdetail  Před 6 lety +1

      You are exactly right. Traditional tar/adhesive removers will dry out the plastic and make it look whitish. I do use Rapid Remover for my "go-to" when it comes to removing tar and adhesives. This product is far easier and does not fade/discolor/dry out the plastics like traditional tar removers. www.best-auto-detailing-tips.com/car-adhesive-remover.html Also a trick I use for heavy cases of tar in the fender wells is to bust out a rattle can of spray paint and simply cover it up by painting over it. This is usually a great "winning balance" for those extreme cases of tar sling in the fender wells.

    hyper dressing at 2.5:1 has become my workhorse dressing. Plastic wheel wells, engines, etc. it's just shiny enough without being 'used car lot' shiny.
    Carpet liners suck. Total pain in the ass!
