3 Reasons
Ceramic Coatings are a great way to protect your wheels. These are the three main reasons.
1. Wheels can be hacked.
Your vehicle’s wheels are the lowest part of your vehicle, so they are especially vulnerable to road debris. Your brakes are only inches from the spokes of your wheels. The brake dust that is created when brake pads press against rotors can bond easily to your wheels.
2. Wheels can be particularly difficult to clean.
It is difficult to get rid of brake dust if it bonds to your wheels. Many times, the washing methods used to clean other surfaces of your vehicle won’t be enough to get rid of all contaminants on your wheels. Wheels come in a variety of shapes and curves that make it difficult to reach with a brush or a wash mitt.
3. Your car’s design is dominated by wheels.
What is the point of all this? Your vehicle’s appearance and style are largely determined by the wheels. Unattractive wheels can ruin the beauty of your vehicle’s paint. Don’t let these wheels get ugly! Protect them with Ceramic Coating that is applied by skilled professionals.
