Final report of the wheel coating effect of Porsche 911

After all, was it okay to wear a wheel coat?

If I write from the conclusion, it is "It was very good to have the wheel coating of Porsche 911!" ^ ^

It got really dirty beforeWhen I wrote in this blog that it was hard to wash the wheelsI am grateful to the people who taught me that "wheel coating is good". Thank you very much.

The other dayWheel coating at Porsche CenterAfter that, I hadn't washed the car for 80 days, and the wheels became very dirty ... Where the rain was concentrated and it became beautiful, "This is just watering with a high pressure washer. It will be completely beautiful! "Expecting and making an interim reportI did.

This time is the continuation of that, the final report ^^

It's been 87 days since the wheel was coated. finally. finally. The day has come to wash the Porsche 911 Carrera for the first time in 87 days ... it was a long time!

No, for 87 days, I just skipped it (laughs).

Try washing the car at A PIT Shinonome

I usually wash my car at home, but this time I came here to wash the Porsche 911 Carrera.

It is "A PIT Shinonome" in Shinonome, Koto-ku, Tokyo, which was reborn from what used to be Super Autobacs Shinonome.

I went to the store for the first time in a long time, but when I saw the building, I could see the letters "TESLA" in the APIT area.

I don't think it was there before when I came a long time ago (I'm sorry if it was there), but there is a Tesla service center, and there is also a Tesla parking (charging facility) in the APIT parking lot. Was completed. I was surprised.

Of course, the purpose of coming here this time is this car wash.

yes! I wanted to see how clean the wheel-coated wheels would be with high-pressure washing with only water.

I'm thinking of washing the entire car at home, so I came here just to "water the wheels" ^^

If the wheels are really clean just by applying high pressure water, I'm also considering buying a high pressure washer for wheel washing at home (I want to make wheel washing easier).

The effect of glass coating is amazing

As I wrote before, on Carrera's bodyHave a glass coatingThe effect is really amazing. This glass coating was also applied at the Porsche Center.

Thanks to this coating, it's so beautiful that it's hard to believe that it hasn't been washed for 87 days. … Except for the wheels.

Every time it rained heavily, the body returned to a shiny state, and the "natural rain car wash" was the only way to keep it clean and forever.

This "body on the 87th day without washing the car" is here. It may be difficult to understand due to the clouds, but it is shiny even though it is a black car ↓

The buttocks are like this, and they are so beautiful that you can't think they haven't been washed.

But ... yes, only these wheels have accumulated 87 days of dirt, which is amazing. The fact that I can't hide only here, I haven't washed the car (laughs).

I will try to get closer.

Wow, it's really messy. It's pitch black.

the world of Darkness. It is completely falling to the dark side. Carrera wheel.

No, wait. Perhaps if I leave it alone as it is, maybe a cool black wheel will be completed without painting?

... I won't.

As expected, the black wheel has become so dirty.

The base wheel is now coated, so how easy is it to clean it compared to the previous uncoated wheels?

Immediately, select the car wash menu at the APIT car wash. This time, I just chose the option of just getting water out. Is it 300 yen?

Nozzle part where water comes out. It's quite heavy ...

Well then, start.

Bushu! Water comes out vigorously.

oh? When it hits the water, doesn't it turn silvery in a blink of an eye? ??

I will stop the water once.

circle! !! For the time being, I just hit it without thinking about anything, but it's getting so beautiful! !!

It's a moment, a moment.

Before the coating, if the wheel became black and dirty, it was quite difficult to remove the dirt.

This time, just by pouring water on it, the darkness will clear up more and more! !! !!

This is quite comfortable ^^

Gradually, the parts that are becoming beautiful will increase. The upper part and the part where it is difficult to hit the water are black, so water there too ...

Wow, it will be beautiful! !! Wow, this.

Just by pouring water on it, it became really pretty. Until now, it seems to be a lie that it couldn't be cleaned unless it was thoroughly washed with a brush.

thatMy experience of cleaning the wheelsWhat was that ...

No, that's what makes this wheel coating so grateful!

Here is the front left tire after flushing the whole with water ↓

Left back ↓

Right back ↓

… And for some reason, there is no photo in front of the right (laughs), so the photo in the back right is up ↓

I was told in advance that it is better not to hit the brakes directly with water from high-pressure washing, so it feels like hitting them thinly so that they do not hit the back. Is that so? But it has become so beautiful.

so. However, there is one problem.

No, is it a problem? Or rather, it's my problem that I'm not used to such a car wash ^^

Yes, every time I hit the water at a strange angle, the water will fly to me with a fair amount of force.

Already, if you notice it, you're pretty sloppy (laughs). It's too strange.

Porsche 911 and bathing

However, when I got sloppy, it became fun and I didn't feel like washing the whole car, but Carrera wanted to mess with me, so I started to scream from above.

It was said that it is better not to apply it directly to the body with high pressure washing, so it feels like it is fluffy and it is applied like rain (fog?) From above.

Ah, yes, this is no longer a "car wash". Completely my play?

In the first place, I didn't plan to wash the whole car, so I didn't bring any microfiber for wiping, so I can't wipe it (laughs).

While I was pouring water, my tension rose and I said, "I'm going to wash my car when I get home, no!" And bathed with Carrera.

Well, yeah, it's December (laughs).

No, it was a warm day ^^ It was so cheerful that I didn't have to wear a coat, so it was kind of fun and I took a bath with Carrera. The best (metamorphosis).

I drove a water-soaked Carrera in a state of "Is that person okay?" And went home.

Porsche was beautiful in the "rain that is falling properly" so far, but as expected I did not want to wash it, and it became dirty like this with water sprayed from above for play ↓ Naturally Isn't it ^^

After all, halfway watering is very dirty.

I was planning to wash it right away, so it's good, but I realized again that I shouldn't play in the water poorly (no, that's not normal (laughs)).

It got dirty to my heart's content, so I went home and washed the car.

Ah, it's been 87 days! fun! ← Even though I was skipping ...

It's like I've made it dirty by myself, but when it's dirty, I feel like washing it, and the wheels that have been difficult to wash are already pretty clean, so it's comfortable.

I want to wash it right away.

This time I want to concentrate on what happened after the wheel coating, so I will look at the wheel, but even if it is watered with high pressure washing, I should be careful not to hit the brake. When I looked closely, I found that there was some "unwashed residue" because I wasn't sure where and how clean it was when I was washing it because it was sprinkled with water and splashed with water.

Such a place ↓ Especially at the position of the tire, I wonder if there was a lot of unwashed area around the upper part.

Jr., the demon hand of my beloved wheel wash brushAppearance (I write it many times, but it is not an affiliate or a turn ^^).

Onijin-san, if the wheel is coated with a wheel, it will be made shiny by just stroking it really lightly (+ the groove part is a little scrubbed). amazing!

Perhaps my favorite demon hand Jr must have thought, "Well, what happened to Mr. Wheel? Isn't it wrong?" That's how easy it is to wash. It will be beautiful soon.

It's shiny in no time. This is the beautiful wheel condition that I want.

If you have wheel coating, you don't need a high pressure washer

So, in conclusion ...

I stopped purchasing the high pressure washer (for wheels only).

This is because even if you apply water at high pressure, it is not possible to wash everything up to the point where even the fine grooves are shiny (some parts may be difficult to hit depending on the direction of the wheel), and it is easy to clean just by washing with a demon's hand. And that way, you can finish the details to the level that you are satisfied with ...

"Then, you should do it by hand from the beginning."

The conclusion is ^^

Mostly, I was surprised at how badly I used the high pressure washer, and every time I was doing this, I was likely to be bathed (laughs), so it seemed unpleasant to me.

When I think about it, the BMW 318is that I bought for the first time as a member of society is still important, and at that time I took it to the car wash for the first time and washed it myself ... Suddenly I put water on the front BMW emblem. The BMW emblem had blown away. I can laugh even if I remember now (laughs).

After all, I think it's better not to use a high pressure washer ^^

Porsche 911 Carrera who was able to wash the car properly for the first time in 87 days, and the body and wheels became shiny. After all it is the best.

Looking at the Carrera that had been washed in this way, it was completely different from the degree of shinyness in the "natural rain car wash". It's too beautiful. This is the day after washing ↓

I'm sorry I haven't washed the car for a long time ...

So the final conclusion about wheel coating.

"Wheel coating is worth doing and is especially recommended for those who wash their car by themselves."

I think.

Following the glass coating on the body, I didn't think it was so satisfying.

Even if the coating cost is incurred as an initial investment, if you wash the car yourself, the cost-effectiveness is outstanding considering the subsequent "degree of labor".

Thank you to Porsche Center for beautifully coating the wheel again this time ^ ^

Cute Porsche 356 that was washed in APIT Shinonome

Finally, this miniature I found at the car wash goods corner of APIT Shinonome.

Isn't it cute? ?? I'm washing the Porsche 356 ~.

The moment I saw it, I fell in love with it. cute! !!

I came back from APIT Shinonome dreaming that I would like my car to make this kind of modeling ^^

I understand the effect of wheel coating well, and I would like to wash the car in a faster cycle in the future.

When I wash my car, I feel like my heart is washed. For me, car washing may be similar to meditation ^^

It is a time when you can feel the time with your beloved car more deeply. It is also a time to deepen your love for Porsche 911.

I really love Porsche 911. It's a car that I want you to stay with me forever.
