Protecting Chrome Wheels

Hi All,

I am about to bring home a brand new FLHTCUSE4 with shiny new, awesome looking, chrome wheels. My question is, what product(s) can I use to keep those wheels looking like new?

Yes, I'm a "polisher" when then weather doesn't permit riding. But, I don't want to be spending a bunch of money in a year's time to have the wheels re-chromed, etc.

Many thanks!

Richard

Blackfire has a product called "Wet Diamond". It's an all metal sealant that lasts 4-6 months. It will give your chrome and aluminum extra depth.

Here is the stuff I use.
Specifically designed for wheels to repel brake dust and road grime. Lasts a long time. I have tons of waxes and polishes and nothing seems to last like this on wheels.
