    Protecting Matt Finish Wheels

    What's the best way of protecting matt finish wheels? I wouldn't think a paste style wax would be appropriate as I don't want gloss rims. Is there a recommended spray that might work best??

    I'm actually trying to find the same answer! I have yet to find anything that works... well at least without adding any gloss.

    It's a powdercoated wheel so no, not really a clear coat but a finished wheel.

    I use colinite 845 on my factory Shelby GT500 wheels, inside and out. Works perfectly.
