When I toured the VPC the paint guy there explained a bit about the frozen colors. It's more the clear coat the the paint it's self. That's why they say to never use wax or polish on frozen.

The 763m wheels have a frozen finish. Assuming it's using the same type of frozen techniques used on the frozen paint on car you might only need a clear coat.. check this link

I have the frozen gold wheels on SO and they look more of a Champagne color than gold.
Sorry for reviving an old thread, but your car looks sick. Love those frozen gold wheels on the SO.
