Proper care of car wheels allows you to maintain their attractiveness and extend their service life. However, many car owners make mistakes that can lead to damage to the wheels. Let's consider the most common of them. You can also improve the appearance of your car and add expressiveness to it by using tuning accessories, a large selection of which is available in our online store.

Common mistakes in disc care

  • Using harsh cleaning agents: Acidic or alkaline cleaners can damage the paintwork and cause corrosion. Choose neutral cleaners designed specifically for car rims.
  • Neglecting regular cleaning: Brake dust, road grime, and reagents accumulate on the discs and can eat into the surface, causing cloudiness and stains that are difficult to remove. Regular washing is the key to maintaining shine.
  • Improper drying: Leaving discs to air dry will cause water spots and streaks. Wipe the discs dry with a soft microfiber cloth.
  • Ignoring damage: Chips, scratches, and curb rash not only spoil the appearance, but can also become sources of corrosion. Timely repair of damage will help prevent more serious problems.
  • Using the wrong tools: Hard brushes and sponges can scratch the surface of discs. Use soft brushes and sponges designed for delicate cleaning.
  • Lack of protection: After washing, it is advisable to treat the discs with protective waxes. This will create a protective layer, make further cleaning easier, and add extra shine.

How to properly care for discs?

  • Wash your wheels regularly, especially after driving in bad weather.
  • Use neutral cleaning products.
  • Dry the discs thoroughly after washing.
  • Repair damage in a timely manner.
  • Use soft cleaning tools.
  • Protect discs with special compounds.

By following these simple rules, you can keep your car's wheels in excellent condition for many years.
