I've used it before and never had a problem with it scratching the paint!

I used to live in Chico when I was in school and my car was always getting dusty...so I'd do it like twice a day depending on how often I drove!

i use mine all the time in summer, it's great for when you just wash the car and the next day it's covered in dust. i never scratched my paint either. you also have to use it right, don't just rub the **** onto your paint like a madman, you have to kinda drape it over.....kinda hard to explain.

Wheels...I just wash normally with the rest of the car! As for tires I use either Eagle 1 or Meguiars...try to apply with an applicator so you don't get overspray on your car or rim!

It does create swirls after a while, because theres no way to clean the damn thing.

But if you arent **** about swirls, it works okay.

Microfiber + quick detailer, is MUCH better. and takes only 5 minutes more.
