You sir, detail cars like a boss.

Now when you say "various brushes," which brushes are you referring to? Would I get the same results with Sonax and some MF towels/sponges?

And is Iron Cut pretty much Sonax for the shell of the car?

correct Iron Cut is for the paint (can be used on the wheels) and sonax works best on wheels.

here are the brushes we used on the car.
