Preferbly something I can pick up locally to coat my new flat black wheels before I have them mounted on my car, as I would like to mount them ASAP!

Guess I should post a pic. Drag DR-67 17x8.5 for my 2014 Phantom Grey Cadillac ATS Sedan. I think they're gonna look hot like fire!

Nice wheels man...gonna look sick on the caddy! Ive used mckees 37 wheel glaze on a similar finish wheel and they came out awesome. Not sure about locally but you can always go to the one stop shop....autogeek.net! Its like 25 bucks...well worth it

How about this? CQuartz DLux Plastic & Wheel Coating? I just don't want to mess up the matte paint.

It can't get any easier than mckees.Dlux is tacky and finicky to work with.use cq uk if you don't want mckees.

But then again, maybe it can.

I got this idea from another poster (Don't remember who. But I remember it was a reputable guy. Pureshine?). Clean the wheels, spray with CarPro Hydro2 Touchless, hit with a hard rinse.

I got the product, but haven't tried it yet.

Hydro2 is quick and easy but it won't last as long as a coating.

Gtechniq Wheel Armor is another good one.

Hydro was made for people who don't want to polish and wax and do it the correct way,more of a quick something or nothing.

Second the GTechniq Wheel Armour. Used it on fresh Powder Coated wheels. Prep was simple IPA 10% and coat away. I have also used it on my painted summer rims and seems to really protect. I maintain with Permanon which is similar to Hydro2.
