How To Maintain The Aluminum Ring

‌Maintenance methods for aluminum alloy wheels mainly include the following points‌:

‌Avoid using cold water to clean at high temperatures‌: When the temperature of the aluminum alloy wheel is high, it should be allowed to cool naturally before cleaning. Avoid using cold water to rinse directly, otherwise the aluminum alloy wheel will be damaged, and even the brake disc will be deformed, affecting the braking effect. In addition, using detergent at high temperatures will also cause chemical reactions on the surface of the wheel, causing it to lose its luster and affect its appearance‌.

‌Regular cleaning‌: The wheels should be thoroughly cleaned once a week to wash away dirt such as sand and iron powder attached to the surface of the wheel. In particular, the mixture of iron powder and oil dirt ground out by the brake disc during braking is not easy to remove once it condenses‌.

‌Use appropriate cleaning tools‌: It is best to use a sponge or towel to clean the aluminum alloy wheel, or a soft brush, but do not use a brush with too hard bristles, especially a wire ball, otherwise it will damage the wheel surface. For asphalt that is difficult to remove, "active oil" can be used for cleaning‌.

‌Corrosion prevention‌: In humid areas or near the seaside, the wheel hub should be cleaned frequently to prevent salt from corroding the aluminum surface. If necessary, the wheel hub can be waxed after cleaning to keep its gloss forever‌.

‌Avoid using paint brightener or other abrasive materials‌: The wheel hub itself has a layer of metal protective film, so be careful not to use paint brightener or other abrasive materials when cleaning‌.
