Product Description

Approximately 70% of brake dust is repelled by C5 Wheel Armour, meaning your rims are much easier to With technology similar to our C1 Crystal Lacquer and C4 Permanent Trim Restorer, C5 offers enhanced protection for wheels of any kind, whether they are standard or alloy.
C5's exceptionally fine surface rheology and chemical bonding mechanism make it an exceptionally good performer due to its unique, unique characteristics.
THE SCIENCE Fine surface rheology is responsible for the coating's incredible stain and contamination resistance, and the chemical bond formed between the wheel surface and C5 keeps the coating flexible.
It is possible to expect C5 Wheel Armour to last 1-2 years after it is applied.
TIPS FOR APPLICATION Make sure you have enough product on hand before beginning any application. Coating the outside of the rims will only require 15 ml, so rims up to 18" can be coated with that amount. We recommend using the larger 30ml bottle in every other situation. As this is an inorganic coating, it will resist extremely high temperatures, so you can use it on brake calipers as well!

Reduces brake dust buildup to a great extent
5/5

Their purpose is to make coated surfaces very slick once they have been applied correctly! The wheels of my M3 were cleaned this way a few days before I took a 400 mile trip, but upon arrival, I was surprised how clean they (the fronts especially) were. It was very easy to gently brush off the fine layer of brake dust even though there was a very thin layer. The only way to determine whether the coating will last the advertised 1 year is to wait and see The product is guaranteed for two years. In regards to the 15mL volume, I applied two coats evenly to the face and to the outside compartment of my 19" wheels (437Ms) and I still have about three coats left. The product left on the bottle is 5mL. If multiple coats of the application are to be done, such as paint the inner barrels, 30mL of solution is likely to be more appropriate.

There is still brake dust that adheres to wheels, and you have to clean them by using muscles
3/5

There is no substance beneath the surface. Cleaning my wheels took up too much of my time. All directions given to us by a vendor were followed regarding decontamination, claying, etc. A complete waste of time. Only allowed a week of cure, rather than the recommended 12 hours. Last night went to my favorite restaurant for brunch. I'm like, WTF! Scratch those wheels. They're all covered in brake dust. I sprayed them with water and I'm like, "Ugh! It's not worth your time and money to buy this garbage.

I just need a little more
5/5

My X5 M was able to use the entire bottle. Removed the wheels and applied the coating to the rims, as well as the painted calipers and surface of the wheel faces. I applied it easily and got a shine right away. It's not cheap considering the small amount you get in the bottle, but I'm willing to pay the price if it works. In the packaging, they put a lot of money that is not really needed since you just dispose of it.

I've got brake dust to get rid of
5/5

The recommendation in a FB detailing group convinced me to apply this to my 18x8 wheels and like the results. I can vouch for the quality of this stuff. Getting accepted is pretty easy, it's mostly a matter of preparation. Now that brake dust can be removed easily with just water and pH neutral soap, it has never been easier. My wheels seem to be without iron anymore so I no longer need an iron remover.

White wheels look great with this! A set of new Fifteen52 wheels was coated
5/5

In order to ensure that the white would last, I have so far been extremely pleased with its performance. A drop of break dust is easily washed off using a wipe or rinsing it right off. Following the instructions to the T was very simple and turned out to be much better than I expected. This was a haze-free day with no yellowing, haze, or anything else. We are very satisfied with our purchase!.

I love it! It was enough paint to cover my 19-inch wheels once for each face, and I still had 1/4 of the bottle left for another coat on each! I love the stuff you posted! In addition, I purchased 15ml, so I should be able to get by with that
5/5

It is very simple to apply and the process is straightforward.

The wheel coating is great
5/5

I have never used ceramic coating before, but I think that the C5 is such an easy product to use and to apply. This makes the shimmering metallic flakes even more appealing, and most importantly, it makes it much easier recommend all of my friends who are looking for a coating for their new wheels to get this wheel coating.

Your wheels will last longer if you save time cleaning
5/5

I highly recommend this product, since my SUV generates a lot of brake dust, which is difficult to remove from the alloy wheels. In addition, the finish on the wheels begins to pit if they are not kept clean. It's been about a year now that I have been using this product, and my wheels are much cleaner and easier to clean than ever before. There's nothing like it when it comes to being clean A 30ml bottle can be used for two vehicles, each taking advantage of two applications. The product is a bit tricky to apply if your wheels are complex, but as long as they are clean and dry, you just wipe it It is a product that lasts forever once applied. I have been using the first coat for a year now, and I still see the benefits. Even after being washed off the wheels, the water beads up Even so, I managed to apply another coat in preparation for winter this Fall. Despite my experience with other products, including Zymol and other wheel waxes, C5 wheel armor is the most effective and lasts the longest. This book is highly.
