theres a detailing section... but most guys do the like 10 step process ( i dont know how many steps there are) and just do a weekly wax.. and i must say if you own a black G... zaino is the key

WTF???? Why different wax for MT vs AT????

For what it's worth, I used Rejex on my wheels and wasn't impressed. I normally use Zaino on my G and have had good results. I also like detailing dynamics products.

I have recently purchased Menxzerna polishes n sealants for my truck and if I like the way they work, I'll use it on the G too!

Hit Zaino's site and spend time going through the tips/tricks sections as well.

Best thing you can do is adhere to these towel guidlines, IMO.

Towel Guildines - Zaino

If you're interested in Zaino, you can get away with a minimum of Z7 carwash, Z2-Pro (or Z2) with ZFX accelerator and then the Z8 Grand Finale (or Z6) Gloss Enhancer spray. Easy to use, fantastic results and a little goes a long way. I like most of their products.

For your wheels try Wheelwax, it is worth a try. I picked some up during the winter and I am very impressed with the results, They definitely seem to stay cleaner and there is less brake dust build-up. I was using Zaino on my wheels before.
And +1 for Zaino for the car.
