1. Daily cleaning

Dirt on the wheels will cause corrosion when exposed to humid air for a period of time. Dirt on the brakes will affect the brake system and cause corrosion spots on the wheel surface. These layers of dust and dirt must be cleaned regularly. This is something to keep in mind when washing your car.

2. Use the right cleaner

Many household cleaners are too strong for wheel surfaces and should not be used. There are many general purpose cleaners on the market today, but many are alkaline or acidic and should be used with care. They need to be rinsed only with neutral soapy water. Do not allow any strong chemicals or tire cleaners to come in contact with the wheels as this will result in permanent damage to the wheel surface.

When the wheels are covered with hard-to-clean tar, if normal cleaners do not help, try to remove it with a brush, but do not use a brush that is too hard, especially an iron brush, to avoid damaging the surface of the wheel.

3. Do not flush when the wheels are hot

When the wheel temperature is high, you should let it cool naturally before cleaning, never use cold water to clean; otherwise, it will damage the aluminum wheel, and even deform the brake disc and affect the braking effect. In addition, cleaning aluminum alloy wheels with detergent at high temperature will cause chemical reaction on the surface of the wheels, which will lose the luster and affect the beauty.
