Full Description

On painted, polished or chromed wheels, DLUX resists brake dust and road grime, so the wheels clean up without a dedicated wheel cleaner. CarPro US rates it at up to two years or more, with heat tolerance up to about 540°C, and about 10ml covers a whole vehicle. Sizes: 30ml and 100ml.

Expert Notes

A trim dressing sits on top of the plastic and wears away with washing. DLUX is a coating that bonds to the surface, which is why it restores the colour and outlasts a conventional dressing.

On wheels the benefit shows when you clean them: brake dust and road grime struggle to stick, so a normal wash is usually enough. Prepare the wheel properly with Iron X and Eraser first, because the coating bonds to whatever is underneath.

CarPro gave DLUX a thicker film build than its other CQUARTZ coatings and 50% silica by volume, because trim and wheels take more abuse than paint.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Exterior plastic trim
  • Rubber trim
  • Painted, polished and chrome wheels
  • Headlights, fog lights and tail lights
  • Exhaust tips and metal trim
  • Engine bay plastics
  • Plastic wheel arch liners

Caution: CarPro US advises against matte or satin finishes. On brand new textured plastic, use it at your own risk.

How To Use

Plastic and rubber trim

  1. Work on a cool, dry surface out of direct sun.
  2. Scrub the trim with an all purpose cleaner and a microfibre towel, then rinse and dry.
  3. Wipe with CarPro Eraser and let it evaporate for 20 minutes.
  4. Put a strip of DLUX on the applicator and spread it evenly over a small area, working out from one corner.
  5. On textured trim, work it fully into the texture and do not wipe it off.
  6. On smooth plastic, wipe it off before it becomes too sticky.

Painted and chrome wheels

  1. Wash thoroughly and decontaminate with Iron X.
  2. Polish if needed, then wipe down with CarPro Eraser.
  3. Apply DLUX evenly.
  4. Let it cure for 1 minute at 32°C, up to 8 minutes at 10°C, then wipe in a circular motion until clear.

Top Tip: Keep DLUX dry for 1 to 3 hours after applying and wipe off any water in the first 24 hours. Wash as normal after 3 days.
