Excessive Detailing: Audi RS4 Wheels only Detail & Permanent Protection

[KoshiL]

Audi RS4 wheels get restored, and protected with the only permanent wheel coating on the market. Ceramic Pro strong.

Soap and water first!

Omni Clean to degrase tires and wheels. Great for pulling out the "browness" of tires.

I used Brake Dust Pro to release brake dust embedded in the wheels. We repeat this until there isnt a purple reaction.

Tar balls are gently removed with mineral spirits.... balls.

This a specialized primer / cleaner to prep surfaces for any of the permanent coatings Ceramic Pro offers. (glass, leather, fabric etc)

Setting up to apply the permanent tire shine. Comes in three finishes. Satin, Super Gloss, and Matte. Satin & Brushed aluminium is nice

Light coat rolled on.

Heavy Coat

Since the wheels were off we gave the calipers a few coats, same prep process was used.

After the Ceramic Pro STRONG coating is applied. Great gloss, still a little tacky but we're going to speed it up with an IR lamp.

Looks good but I'd like to see more of this permanent tire coating it looks like a sludgy oily mess during application. Does it sling? The tiny bit I see on the finished product looks okay but I for one would like to see a better picture of it finished.

P.S. The wheels look fantastic!

I include a follow up wash with all coating services, gives the customer time to look over the work as well as point out inconsistencies. AT the time of the follow up i will demonstrate beading properties to the customer, this ensures proper application.

Customers are concerned about Permanent protection beading is just a side effect.

But here is the same coating on a RS7 7 months after application.

Thank you for all the responses and questions! Information about all these products are available on the internet!

you dont drive it around "sludgy" You wait until it completely sets up. Then you can grab the tire to put the wheel back on the car so you dont have to touch the faces that were coated.

What's the durability on the tire coating?

What's the durability on the tire coating?

As long as it takes rubber to break down. It can be damaged if you curb it.... just dust it off. lightly apply with a brush, and it'll be good as new.
