Maintenance & Warranty


MAINTENANCE TIPS
 

All finishes should be ceramic coated before use to ensure a long lasting protection of the surface.

We have suitable products for self application in our shop.

If a professional sealing before shipping is desired, this can of course be made by us. Our local partner professionally seals the rims and this maximizes the safety of the rim surface against dirt and brake dust.

You can get more detailed information about the coating from the manufacturer of the product or on the product page in the shop.

Please note, brushed rims, which only have a clear coat should therefore always be sealed.

RECOMMENDATION: Coat the rims before each season or refresh the existing coating to maintain protection.

 
 

CARE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
If the rims are ceramic coated, simple cleaning with warm water and an acid-free and solvent-free car shampoo is usually sufficient.

If extreme dirt should nevertheless stick to the surface, we recommend an acid-free and careful rim cleaner such as our ForcecleanPRO.

Please note: The finishes such as brushed bronze, brushed shadow, frozen crystal silver, and various brushed and polished surfaces are not suitable to be driven in winterseason!

NEVER STORE YOUR WHEELS DIRTY OVER THE SEASON AND CLEAN CAREFULY THEM BEFORE STORING THEM!


​Our Brushed Shadow and Brushed Bronze may be different from batch to batch, we set a tolerance of 5% brightness. This may caused by different technique of each worker in our factory. As the clearcoating can change the brightness once applied we don't accept any complaint in that case.
