quick question about the white roof.

Okay this is probably a really stupid question but just want to be sure.

I'm waxing the FJ to get it ready for winter and need to know:

Can the white roof be Waxed? I'm thinking yes but like I said just want to be sure.

Also is it a good idea to wax the wheels too, the 17" oem silver ones.

If your gonna flame me please do it after you answer

thanks

Re: quick question about the white roof.

Sure, wax the roof. The wheels I wouldn't bother doing them but if you want to it won't hurt them.

Re: quick question about the white roof.

There is actually a product called "wheel wax" that you use to wax them. It claims to keep road grime off for longer periods of time. I tried it, but wasn't sure if it really worked or not.
