Aluminum Wheel Care

Aluminum wheels are covered with a clear protective coating.

• Do not use abrasive cleaners, polishing compounds, solvents or wire brushes on aluminum wheels. They may scratch or damage the coating.
• Clean the wheel when it has cooled down.
• Use only mild soap or a neutral cleaner, and rinse thoroughly with water. Also be sure to wash the wheels after driving on salted roads. This helps prevent corrosion.
• Avoid washing the wheels at high speed with car wash brushes.
• Do not use alkaline or acidic cleaners. They may damage and corrode aluminum wheels coated with a clear protective finish.
