Here's from when I used the clay bar:

I will continue to use this going forward The application lasts about 2 to 3 years.
The nano mitt removes all road contaminant and cleans the cars exterior like new. The opti-coat gloss is fantastic as it acts like a clear glass film protecting the paint which makes everything just slide off. It makes washing the car a cinch... and I don't ever have to wax the car again for that brilliant shine. I used it on my rims as well. FYI - here is what I got.. Nanoskin Auto scrub -Fine Grade wash mitt http://www.autogeek.net/nanoskin-aut...ine-grade.html Acts as a clay bar or better.. Never tried it but heard some very good things about it. Lubricant for the Nanoskin Auto scrub http://www.autogeek.net/nanoskin-glide-lubricant.html Needed to use with the nanoskin.. dilute with water and use in a spray bottle. Optimum Gloss Coat is now available in a 20 cc size. This gives you enough product to coat a full size SUV or two average sized vehicles. http://www.autogeek.net/optimum-glos...t-coating.html My method is as follows: 1. Wash & Rinse 2. Use the nanoskin clay mitt on the whole surface of the X5 using the nanoskin glide lubricant to remove all contaminant. 3. Rinse and dry 4. Apply Rubbing alcohol to a dry cloth to remove any residue of previous wax/sealant etc. 5. Apply opti-gloss coat as suggested. The whole process took about 3 hours. In action...

thought about maybe this for wheel wax since my wheels are Matte finish? It's Dr Beasley's Matte wheel seal from Detailers Domain. Matte Wheel Seal is a high-tech synthetic protective coating for your wheels which prevents the build up of brake dust. Its formula has extremely high heat resistance so it will last even if you take your ride to the track. Wheel Seal prevents damage caused by brake dust, road tar, and other road contaminants. The best part about it? It's designed for wheels with a Matte finish and no shine.
