Wheel Wax/Protectant
 

What are you guys all using to protect your wheels after washing your car? I'm looking for something that'll protect for a long time and stand up to multiple washes with Optimum No Rinse Wash - don't need anything super shiny/glossy.

I still haven't decided if I'll be using Collinite 845 or the Klasse Twins (AIO topped with a coat or two of their Sealant Glaze) as I have both on hand at home.

Other solid suggestions would be Poorboy's Wheel Sealant, Opti-Seal, CQuartz, or Opti-Coat (last two are a little more expensive but much more permanent).

Poorboys Wheel Sealant gets my vote. I've been using their products since 2007 and absolutely love them (trim restorer, tire gel, swirl removers, polish/sealant, etc). All personal preference though.

Opti-Coat :)

Buy opticoat 2.0

Poorboy's Wheel Sealant is really good choice and if not that try Chemical Guys Wheel Guard as another option.

Both my winters (stock) and summers (TC105N) are opti-coated. I can usually just soap foam the wheels with the rest of the car then hose the brake dust off without any fuss.

Collinite is great protection wax. But for ease and protection, I use mostly optimum spray wax. It looks great and protects well enough between cleanings. Io generally use it on my own car 2 times a month. Also help wiping off break dust. The coatings though like opti coat are even better.

Thanks for this thread OP. Was just thinking about wheel sealant/wax, did a quick search and this came up.

Some on this thread have suggested poorboys (i hadn't heard of it so thanks) so I googled and came up with this discussion of Meguires NXT 2.0 vs Poorboys Wheel Wax. It is on the Meguires site so have to take with a grain of salt as we say in these parts but here it is
