Wheels wells cleaned up
Wheels rinsed
Auto Finesse Iron Out (Decon Gel) was used on the car - no iron particles or fall out on this new car, but always good to have checked
Driver's side Super Charger badged removed for clear film install
Left over adhesive removed with Auto Finesse Oblitarate

Rinse
NanoSkin AutoScrub - replaces the clay bar
Blow drying with the Metro AirForce Blaster
Marring on various spots of the car were taken care of with a Griot's and Sonax 3/6
Much better
Opti Coat on all 4 wheels and paint
Random shots of the clear film installation
