These Classic BMW E30 Wheels Were A DISASTER! Satisfying Auto Detailing!

- Another satisfying auto detailing video for your eyes and ears! These classic BMW Bottlecap wheels came off our E30 and we know these barrels have never been properly cleaned since the 1980's. So we took care of business, from the mildest process to the most aggressive.
We started with our classic wheel detailing process which is an Iron Remover followed by a foamed wheel cleaner, in this instance, P&S BrakeBuster. This made a dent, but we were no where close to a clean wheel. The next step was to Clay Bar the entire surface using Optimum No Rinse as a lubricant. With each step we saw progress, but it took 3K Wet Sanding paper to remove all of the remaining baked on dirt from the wheel barrels.
After all of these steps we gave the wheels a polish using Griots Garage Fast Correcting Cream on a Lake Country Microfibre Cutting Pad. After all these steps it was finally time for a little protection and throw them back on the car!
We hope you all enjoy this little ASMR detailing experience! Thank you all for watching!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The camera work is incredible. Keep it up man.
William Atmur thank you William! Editing the new one right now. Hoping it’s the best one yet!
In the Jordan 1’s my dude!
Matt Weddle haha always! Have a good weekend Matt!
I thought he never shut
My heart broke a little
I had the same reaction lol.
PROPER SWAGG
Hell man, just get them sanded, repaint them so it gonna look brand new again :D
Test Drive haha would do! Not using them anymore though 🙁
I used a Magic Eraser on some hard to clean wheels recently. Worked extremely well.
ric baker awesome! Pretty much the same as using 3K paper. Just slightly less aggressive
do the exterior cleaning of the audi behind you at 15:00 please
Axxel_44 it was in for a new car ceramic coating. Last time I detailed a “clean” car for a video people were very upset haha. But I will be uploading a full exterior cleaning and correction later this week of a very dirty Mustang GT
@@ChromaticGarage I look forward to this video. Very good video as usual
I feel like you could’ve used some tar remover before the clay phase. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the vid and great results.
+1
rsxfreak79 sooo I did 3 of these before filming the process on this one. I tried some very aggressive cleaners including a tar remover and nothing did the job. Sanding resulted in the beat final result! Thank you for watching!
Chromatic Auto Detailing well that explains it. 😅 Thanks for the reply!
3h later - DONEEEEEEEE.
Hold my bear - 3 more.... uh
I feel you bro !
DonDomel lmfao and that’s the truth! Thanks for watching man!
If this is a "disaster", i'm sorry for you guys.
Termiic it’s okay! We’ll be fine
Apparently "disaster" means: a little dirty but in perfect condition. No pitting, no scratches, no oxidation, just a little dirty.
Doing the same on my style 32. claying years of neglection builds some big forearm muscles.
Wow, that’s fantastic! You do some insane work. I just found your channel so I’m binge watching your videos 🤣
Thank you very much! You da best
Why did you not remove the centre cap prior to cleaning?
Aran Poyntz centre bore is rusted. Not going to repaint them as they’re not going back on the car. Just wanted to put them in storage a bit cleaner! If I was going to use them again I would have repainted them
@@ChromaticGarage I'm assuming that's why you didn't clean up the mounting surface either.
fubar1217 exactly. Going in the shed!
Those 1’s must be ceramic coated!!! 👌
Santiago Cervantes haha you know this!
The shoes always stay spotless too. I have no idea how you do it ! 😂
Haha I try my best, it doesn't always work out
Maybe he detailed his shoes.
Excellent video bro as always 👍🏼👍🏼
Ralda’s Details thanks brother! I hope all is well!🙏
In my opinion you are not right with the order to start. First I would start with a deep rinse to clean all the junk and then flow with a foam then big brush clean then little one followed by another rinse and finally some coating or protecting
Jota Ele there was no loose debris on the wheels. Next time though!
Bottlecap wheels are underrated. People don't give them the love they deserve!
I see in another comment you tried multiple products and mediums but curious if you tried steel wool? Some flitz might be do well paired with steel wool and/or your 2000-3000 sandpaper. Do you have any Meguiar’s wheel brightener...might have helped as well on the backside during initial cleaning.
Another option is micro-mesh of the same grits described above. Not sure but I can see where you just throw the kitchen sink at it with ideas and I have too many to list here.
Just found your channel and I’m a fan already. I’m putting you up there with Apex, PAN, Wilson, Jimbo, & Forensic as my favorite channels.
Your cinematography is excellent. Something tells me that was maybe a path you were interested in taking professionally at one time?
L J steel wool would have been a great idea! I try to stay away from wheel brightener but you’re right, it would have absolutely helped!
I actually just started getting into camera stuff to document stuff for the business, really took a liking to it so I have been trying my best to gain some knowledge. Going to upgrade gear in coming months and see where we can take it!
Thank you for the kind words!
Unless we are talking vintage wheels, I'd honestly just get a new set of wheel rather than paying for cleaning them or restoring them. I have a set of Viper replica wheels that don't have any cloar coat on them anymore and I live in apartments so I'm not allowed to work on cars in my parking lot, so I called a person who specifically repairs wheels and they wanted to charge me $600 to repair all 4. Now don't get me wrong I thought that was actually a good price because that's about how much I'd charge to repair some wheels, but with 600 I can literally buy the same set of rims in like new conditions😂
Haha these literally are vintage wheels! I am aware they are worth nothing but you are making a comparison to replicas. They're not going back on the car though. Just cleaning before they hit the storage unit.
@@ChromaticGarage I didn't say they aren't vintage, neither did I compare them to replicas🙄 I was just giving an example of when I wouldn't put so much money or work on wheels (my personal example)
Damn toooo MUCCHHH of HHAAARRDDDD WOORRRKKKKK, Chromatic shine at its Best...
Haha thank you Arko!
I would have taken the Scotch Brite sponge..
Michalis Nent. Would have been a great idea Michalis!
I dont understand why you clayed the inside of the wheel when you had to sand it down later on ? You shouldve saved time and skipped on the claying because the insideof the wheel isnt visible and with the amount of road tar and brake dust, theyll be covered with grime in a few months.
basit wyne had to do it proper. Least aggressive to most aggressive
If you think those wheels are gross it's because you haven't seen mine
I don't wanna see yours then!!
What's the at 0:00 till 1:19
Do ya mean the song?
@@ChromaticGarage yes :-)
Hey I’m really interested in that little cart you were riding on at 0:52 could you please link it for me😁
It is from MYCHANIC. You can find it on amazon super easily, its a great cart!
Chromatic Auto Detailing thank you so much!!! Btw keep up the amazing work🙃
Literally squeeky clean.
Like my bumhole.
LOL
So good man!! Loved those transitions at the beginning 👌🏼
This is probably a silly question but how come you don't wash them first?
Everything was bonded and they had been rinsed before I put them away. Wouldn't have done much if anything
@@ChromaticGarage thank you for your answer 😊
What kind of camera do you? These shots are gorgeous
This was a Canon t6i!
this is like watching paint dry. 15min of polishing one bottle cap. dude get some better wheels or find something else to do :D
MrErkkimies haha I have 2 sets of very sought after wheels! But they’re near flawless and that’s no fun. So you’re getting this wet paint!
9-2-2020: just bought a (4)set of bottle-caps w/ great rubber/used, for my '99 Civic EX coupe; @$200...and delivered. Plan to change out BMW center decal and roll with the heritage of both automotive worlds. Mine aren't mounted yet; dirty- definitely need some elbow grease, and- there's no fucking way I'm paying dudes in my area $125/hr to do the work. Because I'm NOT either! Some fucker in a mobile service- charging $125/hr.? Shit, that's only $250,000 a yr.! For a dude with a toothbrush and polisher. Gonna pass!
Why go through all of that to clean them and not top with a ceramic coating?
They're just going into storage, not back on the car. Otherwise I would of course coat them!
i was more worried about the cleaners kicks than the wheels
Absolutely love your style my man. I've been a viewer for a long time but never actually subscribed for some reason. I thought I was sub'd, but like I said, big fan for a long time.
Thanks man! I appreciate that! I think you were the first channel I actually ever subscribed too. I really love your updates on ownership of your SQ5, we're about to pull the trigger on an S3 and that was definitely influenced by you
Chromatic Auto Detailing That’s so awesome that I helped you make the move towards an S3. It’s such a smart package. Performance, winter warrior, etc. When do you take delivery?
Funny asmr video...the brake dust is asbestos...
Is it really?
its possible, manufacturers stopped using them in the 1990's but aftermarket and parts from abroad still may contain asbestos.... clutches also... working with vintage cars is awesome! cool video ideas!
Next time, don't use a boars hair brush on the barrel of the wheel, use a much stiffer brush and save yourself some time. Also just spray the brake duster on the tires, might as well let that soak and break down old shine and grime. All camera work but no real common sense when it comes to detailing a vehicle.
It would be more satisfying if you'd quit dancing with the wheel and tire and just start... the video maybe?? Just an observation
Awe the classic bmw wheels a detailers worst nightmare. I used to just hammer them with the old spoke/wire wheel cleaner. Walk away and come back later once it all loosened up.
Can i have your shoes 😆😜 ?!
You can have whatever you like Charlie!
Wow
Ronald Ciubuc thanks Ronald!
Take off the center caps!
I didn't. I'm sorry Jim
Why not use a petroleum based degreaser? Would probably saved you from some of the scrubbing.
A Gustavsson honestly that would have been a good idea. Never really have any on hand TBH! Thanks for the tip!
How much time was spent to clean all four wheels? What a bastard of a design to keep clean.
You know this is good sh*t when a detailer stuck around for the entire length of the video. I would have done some stuff differently but overall, mad salute to you bro. the amount of backache you get after its done.....sometimes i do these and after that question myself, whyyyyyy😂😂😂
Haha awesome man. I am glad you enjoyed it!
so i started watching the video and also avengers endgame movie at the same time.. the movie is over and this video hasn't ended.. way to long
Besser Schwamm und Kärcher.
Stefan Heikaus ☺️
Of course a time to see if any pebbles are stuck inside the tread grooves and remove them .
А диск то ударений. .. На 6.30 хв видно вгорі. А в кінці поміняли диск бо спочатку було взуте TOYO а потім Goodyear
👍 That came out great! awesome video, Glad I found your channel.l was wondering if you were going to bust out a steamer at some point lol.
Haha of course it had to come out at some point. Thanks Tim!
Would be less harmfull if you removed tar with dedicated solvent or tar remover. But all in all great video, love your work! Keep posting such a therapeutic videos.
Leon I tried with zero luck! However I think this also made for a more interesting video. Thanks for watching Leon!
1. Carpro Trix
2. Steam
3. Agitate
4. Rinse
5. Compound + old woolpad
6. Done
Mr Guillaa in theory sure. 30 year old brake dust/tar reacts different
I have some old school cragars got some faded spot's on them what can I do to bring them back
Plastic tray deep.hot water..and baking soda.. resolt be awesome
How are you liking the MYCHANIC rolling chair?
Any update on the E30 Project? ❤️ been following the channel since that project 👍🏻👍🏻 Awesome Content and video editing music choice
Hey Roy! It is completely apart at my home. Welding in new floors and so on. It will make it back on here eventually. I just realized I wanted to start the restoration from the inside out. No need for perfect paint when you're about to fall through the floor haha. If you like E36's at all you may be excited for Thursdays video. Going take 318ic and do a minor restoration for it to be a summertime ride, over the next couple months
What kind of detailer chair was that you were using?
James Gilliam it’s made by a company called MYCHANIC, I love it!
@@ChromaticGarage appreciate the knowledge keep the videos coming
What a waste of time, Try using 1 good product and a power washer
Was anyone else’s ocd set off when you saw the wheel was damaged? 😖
Time and effort shows quality!!!!!!!
Jot Johal thank you! Much appreciated!
Maybe just wasted time 4 that kind of wheels. Not worth it. But great job 👌🏻
Andreas Steinbrecher haha absolutely not worth it. They didn’t even go back on the car. Straight to the shed!
Chemical Disaster for the Nature 😡🤬
Buddha 1964 interceptor in the drain system. No chemicals back into the sewer
Usual state of thing that is being used every day
What’s the dilution ratio of Breakbuster in the foamer?
Only 4 more to go
Haha did them all at the same time. Just filmed the one
Me want some bmw e30 too
SET Auto Care haha everyone needs one!
if my eyes aint deceiving me, u wearing aj1 banned while cleaning stuff O.O, mans got balls
stan LOOΠΔ haha close!
Great job man..
But why not a tar remover before wet sanding? These marks are tar deposits aren't they?
Vasilis Tsellas thanks man! I did the other 3 wheels first and a tar remover didn’t work that well. In areas it did remove there was pretty heavy staining so I had to sand them lightly anyways. Would rather get to it quicker this way!
@@ChromaticGarageDisaster as you said! Thanks for sharing
I am totally shocked at the absence of any corrosion for how thrashed those wheels looked.
K Mayer yeah same! The car is absolutely covered in rust
What was the song used at the start of the video?
JP Laurent honestly, absolutely no order. TH-cam free music
Been there done that on old BMW wheels. Might pick one worth restoring next tome. The ole 14 bottle cap. Not bmws best lol. Nonetheless nice work.
Justin haha agreed and agreed. Just wanted to clean them up before they go in the shed. Didn’t go back on the car
Chromatic Auto Detailing definitely shed-worthy at this point. Looking fresh!
The sound of that tire brush absolutely makes my skin crawl. I literally have to use a soft brush, or jump to the drill brush because of it....
Michael C me too! Absolutely terrible. Always have headphones in
great video
Thank you David!
I know I’m gonna be the only one who says it but THANK YOU FOR MAKING THESE VIDEOS SATISFYING 😅
Haha thank you Hassan! have a great week bro!
How old are tyres? Looks new but on a closer look you can see cracks.
5:29 What are those small brushes? Where can i find them?
1 down.....3 to go !! ;--)-
Dan Morrissette haha! I actually did them first!
@@ChromaticGarage loll! that wheel was pretty dirty, usually if i use iron x everything comes out at once!! :-)
Don’t forget the spare!
I have the same sprayer, but I can't get this nice foam. What is your secret?, ;)
Francis ARSAC I have heard so many people say that same thing! Very confusing. I can put pretty much any dilution ratio in it and have it foam!
Its all In the product you use.
Depending on what product you are using, dilution ratios will differ greatly.. Less is definitely more when it comes to iK Sprayers, so start by only using like 1oz of product, mix it thoroughly, and make sure you aren't filling the canister past the top line to leave enough room for air. If it's not giving you the foam you are looking for still, you can try adding more product slowly! We are more than happy to help you troubleshoot! If this doesn't work, shoot me an email morgan@theragcompany.com
@@morganmcmurry5276 and the best customer service goes tooooo!
@@morganmcmurry5276 Thank you very much for your advice, cordially. :) (excuse me for the language, I'm french)
They're much better tools than tooth brushes dude.
I’ve got bottlecaps on my NA Miata. I might ditch them but they’ve been growing on me. They need some love though.
I love bottle caps! However these did not go back on the car
Chromatic Auto Detailing - They turned out fantastic for sure! It’s making me want to put in the effort 👍
All that for some busted up wheels?.....
Great video! I hope you didn't mess up those bred 1's ..are those the ko's
ABNYC 77 haha try not! They’re KO’s, little more forgiving!
@@ChromaticGarage ok I'll give you that.. better canvas than the leather!!👍🏼
Where can we find a pump sprayer like you use?
Brandon Ball if you’re in the states you can order from the rag company! It’s called an IK Sprayer. Love em man!
Chromatic Auto Detailing hey thank you!
Had us the first half not gonna lie 😂😂
This channel needs more subscribers
Markuu slowly man! This channel also needs more videos haha
Those bbs wheels are incredible
M T love em!
Does the fusso last on the wheel as long as the body with the abuse from the iron?
Ede Ali honestly this is my first time putting it on wheels! They’re not going back on the car so I won’t really be able to tell ya. I will do a test soon though!
Very satisfying clean 🧼 🙌 I just finished cleaning some wheels today with a similar process. I liked the way you used the 3M 3000grit trizact for stubborn areas. I’ll have to try that the next time I come across something close to it.
Stephanie M thanks Stephanie! It definitely helped! Tar remover wasn’t doing anything to those spots
What a waste of time just get the acid wash out and be done in seconds why waste your time with stupid little soft brushes and millions of chemicals and still not get them cleaned properly
You are right! I will do that next time
Sorry for sounding mean I wasn't trying to be just hate seeing people waste precious time I believe in work smarter not harder thats all 👍They do look 100% better though
Soon, for sale in Poland as brand new.... ;D
Haha most likely!
not sure how you're not at 100k yet, great videos, man.
Jack Mcmackin thanks Jack! Slow climb, I’m happy with the progress as of late
Bro, how much u will charge for the detailing?
I am not really sure. These are just wheels from a person car.
Can u use those se products on brakes?
thanks for the video! do you suggest using the dry or wet foam tip on the foam sprayer when it comes to wheels?
Timothy Ly I prefer the wet foam! A heavier foam typically allows more debris to be pulled off with it
Chromatic Auto Detailing thank you!
"Is it the shoes???!"
Could be!
vonixx products are excellent
whats the song near 15.43
98% of the wheels at my tyre shop
I’ve never seen a bottle cap this clean
Haha not bad right!
Ok, who used an AW wheel weight on a BMW wheel?
300DBenz haha was hoping someone would notice that! Canadians man
Chromatic Auto Detailing At least it’s a Period Correct mistake.
Hi, 5:29, where the hell did you find that tiny brush?! THIS is exactly what I'm looking for to clean my window rubber. Perfect to fit in with APC so I can try to get rid of those annoying dirt that I have when I raise them after a wash. I would be more than pleased if I could put a hand on that! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
