it really depends on how bad the rims are or how hard they are to clean up.
twists are quite easy to clean and this 996 was super clean so it was easy to clean them up.

Phil,
On my last order I bought some Metallic for my dad's Speed Yellow 997 C2S. Glad to see you using it on another speed yellow 911! I see you used a PC. How effective is it applied by hand? For a car that gets driven a lot is it okay to use it is a final sealant?
