Wheel sealant on track wheels

Brigsy · Apr 1, 2018

Any recommendations for good quality wheel sealant that will help keep my wheels from suffering the pad fallout of doom when using agressive pads. Thanks in advance

I use Autoglym wheel spray sealant for ease and speed, then a couple of coats of FK1000P. Then wash them as soon as I can when I get home. Done 3 or 4 track days on current wheels and they’re still in good shape.

I've just bought this for my Brembo Calipers and the alloy bells for my Impreza.

Rated to 350 degree.

C5 would be my go to choice. I applied rim to the Saab wheels and I don’t think it’s lasted quite as long plus slightly more fiddly to apply as it’s a fair bit thicker.

Gyeon Rim is nice to use.

Used it on these and after a track day you can imagine what colour the white wheels went!

Cleaned up like new.

Best to do 2 coats as per instructions.

Quick tip for the applicator foam block, if you cut two slits along the length of the block on the sides and then use a bank card or something to tuck the suede cloth into it.

Saves holding the cloth around the block.

Same wheels as mine, Ill give that a go cheers. I can imagine they were black with brake dust after a trackday, mine were black after 400 or so miles on the road. First time i have had white wheels and trying to keep them in decent nick.

So how long did you leave them between coats mate?

@JamesBryan do you have any slight discolouring to your white wheels from use?

I think it's a few hours, but I left it a full day.

Only used once so far on a track day. No discolouration yet.
