Which product would best protect factory clearcoated rims, Wheel Wax, Collinite 845, oa Zaino Z2,Z5?
 
I treat them the same way I would my paint since they are both Clear coated.



I use NXTv2 on my paint which is the same thing I use on my rims.
 
I prefer the WOWA products (OS/CS/UPGP). Easy as 1 2 3.



In the past I've used Z-2/Z-5 on my wheels and I'd say the durability was fair considering how many times I clean my wheels a week.
 
I've used Klasse SG previously and more recently, Poorboy's EX-P.



Both work great and keep the brake dust off very well. The Poorboy's EX-P seems to really make the rims pop.
 
I use Collinite on my wheels. I have racing brake pads and they dust alot, so I want a wax that will last a while and is tuff. Nothing sucks more than caked on brake dust after a autocross.

Yeah, that's really important especially if you're using something like Hawk Blues where it can be potentially corrosive.



I've used Axxis Ultimates for autox and the track (not the greatest choice in the world for roadcourses) and they don't dust any worse than the stock pads.
 
I just put a layer of 845 on my wheels about 2 weeks ago... so far they're no easier to clean at all. BMW brake dust FTL. I'll probably keep them protected with AW in the future after washes... just for peace of mind, but I don't think it's made a difference.
 
I heard DG 101 was good on rims. I've used Wheel Wax and it's ok, just do not apply too thick or you're hate yourself!
 
I've had great luck with Poorboys Wheel Sealant so far. It has done a good job for me on my uncoated polished wheels and on my clearcoated wheels. It made the clearcoated wheels pop and made them easy to clean. I would think any of the products mentioned would do a great job. Use whatever you have.
 
The Poorboy's Wheel Sealant has been good to me so far as well. I wash mine quite a bit though. I'll probably try some Zaino on them next.
 
I currently have KAIO 1x KSG 4x on my rims and it seems to be holding up fine. I was thinking of topping with 845 or 476 one of these days.

I thought the Axxis pads were supossed to be a low dust pad?
