Expert Notes

The Chemical Guys Wax Coat Wheel Guard, listed by the maker as Wheel Guard Max Coat Wheel and Rim Sealant, is a coating built to repel brake dust, dirt and road grime while adding a high gloss shine to wheels. Chemical Guys states it cuts brake dust contamination by up to 75% against unprotected wheels and lasts up to 8 months from one application, withstanding the heat of regular braking. It suits gloss painted, powder coated, chrome, polished aluminium, stainless steel and gold wheels. It fits into a routine straight after a full wheel clean and dry, applied with a dedicated applicator and buffed with a microfibre towel kept apart from paintwork kit, and works well alongside a regular wheel cleaner and brush for ongoing maintenance.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Alloy wheels
  • Powder coated wheels
  • Chrome wheels
  • Polished aluminium wheels
  • Stainless steel wheels
  • Gold wheels
  • Rims
  • Brake components

Caution: Apply only to cool wheels out of direct sun, and keep wheel sealant tools and applicators separate from those used on paintwork.

How To Use

Application

Aftercare
