Maintaining the cleanliness and condition of your vehicle's wheels goes beyond aesthetics. They are crucial components for the safety and performance of your vehicle, requiring specific care to ensure both functionality and appearance. Investing in a wheel well care kit is fundamental for those who want to achieve a thorough cleaning and protection of their wheels.
Below are some recommended products that will give your wheels a refreshed look and extend their lifespan.
Cleaning the Wheels and Wheel Wells
The first step for comprehensive wheel care is removing dirt, dust, grease, and other contaminants from the wheel wells. For this, it's recommended to use a specific wheel cleaner that is designed to work efficiently without damaging the surface. Here are some VONIXX products you can choose from for this purpose:

- Vexus: A high-performance cleaner developed for cleaning wheels and engines, effective on plastic, painted, rubber, or metal parts.
- Impact: A universal, environmentally friendly cleaner designed for tough cleaning of various surfaces, effectively removing stains from insect impacts, grease, and dirt.
Protecting the Wheels
After cleaning, it's crucial to protect the wheels from harmful effects of weather and use. Apply a high-quality wheel protector that will create a protective layer against UV rays, acid rain, salt, and other aggressive agents. Here are the VONIXX products that can be used to protect your vehicle's wheels:
- Sinergy Wheel: Developed to protect and shine wheels with up to 6 months of protection, featuring VONIXX's CARBOSILOXY nanotechnology.
