Wheel Care Tips...

Treat the finish of your wheels as you would treat the finish of your car!

Most alloy wheels on the market today feature a painted surface, machined lip or face with a clear coated finish. To take care of your wheels without damaging the protective finish frequent washing with a quality car wash, such as Mothers™ or Polyglaze™, and water is highly recommended. Periodic use of a bug and stain remover can prevent permanent staining and waxing will protect the wheels finish from the elements. Never use abrasive cleaners, steel wool pad’s or polishing compounds. Alway’s be wary of automatic car washers. Some use acidic cleaners to remove dirt and grime. Others may use stiff brushes for cleaning wheels and tyres. Both of these could harm your wheels so always ask about equipment and procedures before entering the car wash.

Never allow your wheels and tyres to be steam cleaned. Hot steam can dull the paint and clearcoat finish on your wheels. Never clean hot wheels, always wait until they cool down. Water dries far faster at higher temperatures which can cause your solution to dry too quickly leaving spot’s or a film of soap on your wheels. Cleaning wheels in direct sunlight also causes the wheels to dry too quickly, leaving spot’s in the finish. This is a particular problem with chrome plated and machined face wheels. Clean your wheels on a regular basis, they are often the dirtiest part of your vehicle and they’re constantly exposed to the elements, corrosive brake dust, ocean and road salt and sticky tar.

Disc brake dust is a big problem. If not removed it can actually burn small marks into the wheel, which in turn can lead to ‘pitting’ of the wheel. This can then lead to various problems, especially in chrome plated or machined lip / face wheels as it can damage the protective clearcoat or chrome plating. If you don’t clean chrome plated wheels regularly moisture, which is harbored in the brake dust and grime, can lead to severe pitting and rusting of the wheel surface.
