Do you just wash the wheels and apply? Or is there any kind of prep you wanna do like claying?

Anyone who’s done this please lmk

Similar prep as you would with the car. Wash, clean the wheels with a good wheel cleaner and clay mitt if needed. Can also polish the wheels before applying a coating.

For the calipers, take the wheels off (obviously), use some brake cleaner to make sure you get all the residue off and then a quick wash/wipe to get all the brake cleaner off. Similar prep as you would if you were going to paint the calipers.

Synthetic clay mitt is best. And you most likely would only need it for the barrels. You can use a light or medium clay bar if you want but you’ll want to polish afterwards
