Aluminum Wheel Maintenance

A protective coating is provided over the
aluminum wheels. Special care is needed
to protect this coating.

NOTE

l

Do not use a wire brush or any abrasive
cleaner, polishing compound, or solvent on
aluminum wheels. They may damage the
coating.

l

Only use a mild soap or neutral detergent
and always use a sponge or soft cloth to
clean the wheels.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm or cold
water. Also, be sure to clean the wheels
after driving on dusty or salted roads. This
helps prevent corrosion.

Avoid washing your vehicle in an automatic
car wash that uses high-speed or hard
brushes.

If your aluminum wheels lose luster, wax
the wheels.
