There is always some soot build-up at the bottom of the chrome tip after a day or two. Does yours have this issue too?

Thanks all- same issue here and I appreciate the chrome (old school, I like a little bling). We intentionally opted for the base unit with satin window surrounds, roof rails, and of course the 20" wheels with yellow calipers. Beautiful.
Since I wash from top down, I add a little Dawn for the rocker bases, wheels, wheel wells, and below the belt, using the wheel brush from Amazon referred in a previous post. It didn't remove all of the carbon and it helps to have an idea what to do. Looks like Pep Boys has the Autosol. Thanks for the tip on the tips, moparbrian!
10 weeks in and I still wake up in the night excited about what's in the garage; get all warm and excited taking it out for a spin.
have you considered to go to a car specific soap? Dish soaps tend to be tough on waxed finishes.

Yes- I only add Dawn below the sheet metal and for the wheels, rockers, and wheel wells.have you considered to go to a car specific soap? Dish soaps tend to be tough on waxed finishes.
