// XPOST: Ceramic Coated My New Wheels \\

XPost from my build thread.

All products were purchased from DetailersDomain.

Ceramic coated the new wheels with some Nanolex products.

used the Nanolex SiShield Kit.

don't mind the mulch on the tire. tire is seriously sticky


prep before coating


applied the coating after the wheels were prepped. make sure you do this in a well ventilated place. a mask might be needed.

Looks great! Just received my EC-7s and will be coating mine as well. What size RE-71R did you go with?

Cleaning was soooo much easier. Brake dust came right off. While wiping the spokes dry, you can tell the wheels were coated and everything was just coming off very easily.
