Protecting powder coated wheels

Looked all over here and the web. Any info on the best way to clean and protect powder coated coupe 10 spoke wheels. Silver/gray color with whatever sealer they put over it.

Best

I would highly recommend CarPro HydrO2 for quick and easy protection.

CarPro HydrO2: Seal Your Wheels in Less than 1 Minute by Zach McGovern


For longer lasting protection, you could consider a wheel coating such as CarPro DLUX or 22ple VM1 Extreme.


Let me know if you've got any other questions.

Just treat them like paint. You can apply wax or sealant periodically.

While this is absolutely true, there are more durable products that are specifically meant to stand up to the dirt and grime that your wheels are subjected to.

CarPro HydrO2 (listed above) is quicker to use, easier to use, and more durable than a traditional wax or sealant. You really can't beat it for general wheel maintenance.

While it will protect any finished surface, it is not as durable as a silica sealant or coating.
