Wheel protection

**jesselyons2002** · 10-03-2007, 05:53 PM

Hello People I was wondering what would be a good sealant or wax to put on any type of wheel. I know wheel protection doesn`t last long, but what would make it shine and pop. I seen this products:

Chemical guys Wheel guard

Detailer pride wheel glaze

Wheel wax

Poorboys wheel sealant

But don`t know which one to get or which is good

Another one you might want to consider is Collinite IW.

How is the shine on that one compare to the others. Have you this one and others ???

I have the Pb`s Wheel Sealant...I dunno how much difference I can tell on a wheel as far as shine, I`d say similar longevity, but I haven`t done a side-by-side or back-to-back. The IW is a little easier to apply, tho. Darn, that avatar is distracting!

I was thinking of making a thread like this earlier today. I think instead of buying another wax just for wheels, ill use IW845. I use Wolfgang Deep Gloss PS, P21S, Megs 26 and IW845 and Aquawax. Im just a weekend warrior/part time and I dont need another product.

You put that all on your wheels ???

**Ern** · 10-03-2007, 07:48 PM

Oh rofl no. Those are just the waxes I have and outta those id use the iw845

If you like to be lazy, I use OS and Z-CS.

I`ve used 845 and Ex-P on the wheels i`ve done.

+1.. this really rocks on rims... after you apply it for future washes just hit it with water and brake dust/dirt rolls right off.. nearly no chemicals needed. Very cost effective as well!

+1 for Opti-Seal... Have also used Ultima PGP on wheels.... as well as both in combination, layered w/ each other. In my opinion, OS alone or in combo w/ PGP is the most long lasting solution I`ve tried.

I put some Ultima TTGP on a 200k mile Acura Legend wheel today. It took many years of appearance off the wheel. Enough so that the owner notices without me saying anything. I was trying to do it on the sly.

I will report back what the durability is like as I see the car every week.
