Couple of questions on waxing...

Getting ready to do the first wax on my new '11. Was wondering the following...

1. Do you avoid the TRD stickers on the sides of the bed when waxing or just go right over them?

2. Also, if you have painted hubs (rather than the flat black base-model kind), would you wax over those just like the metal?

 

Waxing the sticker would prove of no advantage, same as waxing wheels. Unless you are in car shows, no need to wax either.

 

If you are using a wax like Meguiar's UQW, Duragloss Aquawax, CSI Q-7 Wax or many of the other 'no stain' waxes, you can wax just about anything.

It makes the job easier if you don't worry about what you can and can't wax. On my truck, I wax everything except the tires and the windshield.

 

Good answer and my thoughts exactly!

 

Actually, a durable wax on the wheels is beneficial. Makes cleaning/removing brake dust much easier

 

Agreed.

 

Wash -> Clay -> Polish -> Wax/Glaze

I recommend the Glaze for trucks, only have to do it once a year.
