    What would you suggest for a cleaner and also a sealant for powder coated wheels?

    I use sonax on my wheels, i just had them PC about 3 weeks ago, no issues. Im switching over to CWC and CG citrus gel though. Both shold work find.
    as a sealant I use Zaino Grand finale Spray sealant.

    i was about to start a similar thread as my wheel face is heavily textured powdercoat

    im worried a liquid sealant/paste wax will dry white in the grain like on plastics

    a spray type product would be the best option imo

    Powder Coated Wheels

    • Allow wheel surface to cool down
    • Hose off as much initial grime as you can.
    • Rinse up into the wheel well to wash away road kill, mud and other debris.
    • Use detailing clay and lubrication to remove any embedded contaminants
    • Use a d-limonene (citrus) based cleaner to remove any road tar or oil(P21S® Total Auto Wash) to wheel surfaces and let soak in, agitate with a long-handled boar’s haired brush before rinsing
    • Remove bake dust with C.Quartz IronX or Sonax Wheel Cleaner
    • Rinse wheel surface and then dry thoroughly
    • And then apply a clear WOWO protectant (Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal)
