I have had my wheels for almost a year now and after a wash I noticed that the clear coat,
or clear covering is coming off of my rims.



I have talked to a few people and half said that it is fixable, while the other half said its useless.
My rims are aluminum, and if I take this coating off I will have to buff the crap out of them about once a week.

Is there a special spray to fix this? or some place that can get them done?

I'm sure I'm not the only one with this issue.

 

XXR 962s? My Axis Shine are doing this too. The clea coat is bubbling and coming off. Would also like to know my options.

 

I know there is a solution that can be used on the rims to refinish, I just have no idea what it is called.

And yes Nacho, they are XXR 962's....

 

I want those in gold, even though they're not "top quality", lol. No other rims have that thick 5 spoke I love.

And have you washed your rims with anything weird lately? I washed them off with Simple Green and water once, and that, I think, is what started to cause them to bubble and peel. It might have just been the weather too.

 

I like the rims, they look really good on my custom blue.

As far as using anything special on the rims to clean them, I have not. Just the usual soap and water. I did take it recently to a few car washes but they didn't use anything crazy and if they did it would be worse than what it is.

I kind of want to buy clear coat and see how it works, but I'm willing to hold of until someone on here might bring up some insight

 

I was just at Napa buying stuff to paint my grill, and they have some "Wheel Coating" stuff. If I woulda remembered this thread, I would have saw what it was for.
