Re: Wheel Coatings - Worth it?
I applied leftover Opti-coat 2.0 to the faces and barrels of my ram 2 years ago and they still look like new with regular cleanings using wheel woolies to reach the barrels. I will definitely be using a coating on all new or in good condition wheels in the future.

Re: Wheel Coatings - Worth it?
Wheels look great!
I just did mine this past weekend with wheel wax from DP, this was my first time with wheels off so I wasnt sure what I was getting into.
The next time I will use a coating but I’ll have to get the proper pads, tools,etc to do it correctly.

DP Wheel Wax is better than nothing, but a wheel coating (Dlux) will give lasting protection and ease of cleaning.

Yes. Use GYEON Q2 RIM and you'll love it.
Prep them well.

Re: Wheel Coatings - Worth it?
Wheel coatings are great, no doubt about it but maybe, after their coated and it's about 2 months time, apply something like 303 Touchless sealant to them as a booster. I'm sure the wheel coating is tough but on something that gets the abuse of rims, it doesn't hurt to have a little extra, you know what I mean

Re: Wheel Coatings - Worth it?
Thanks for the feedback. DLUX is a very good wheel coating. Compared to some others it just performs so well. It actually outperforms Gyeon Rim and Gtechniq C5 in my experience.

Only issue I have seen with these type of spray and rinse on wheels is the decrease in self cleaning. They actually seem to attract more dirt than just a coated wheel. A coating maintenance spray sealant works better.
