Clean alloy wheels and apply tire black to your car, find out how to.

To preserve the durability and beauty of your car, it is most important to know how to clean alloy wheels effectively and how to take care of alloy wheel polishing. In fact, alloy wheels tend to corrode over time and give that ugly old and shabby impression to your car. Car wheel and tire care is not only a matter of aesthetics but also a way to keep your car's tires healthy.

 

To clean rims goods you must initially rinse them to remove dirt with a vigorous water jet, then wash them with a wet sponge and one of the products specially designed for alloy wheels. To reach and clean even the most difficult spots, you can use a soft bristle brush. Once this is done, rinse well so that the product is removed, and then dry with a microfiber cloth or buckskin.

The Mafra products recommended for cleaning alloy wheels and polishing them are:

  • SPLENDORLEGA : a cleaner with high degreasing power made to ensure excellent results on any model of rims;
  • MARTINA CLOTH: the suede cloth with high absorption capacity, high wear resistance and that does not leave halos.

To make your tires shine like they just came out of the tire shop, however, you can use the tire black Extreme Black by Mafra. First clean the car's tires by washing them thoroughly, then spray them with the spray to achieve a shiny, wet look.

And there you have it, your car's wheels and tires are remanufactured.

  • You’ve washed your car. Then you dry it… and water spots and streaks appear. 👀 The problem isn’t always the wash itself. Sometimes it’s just how the cloth glides across the surface. The Fast Cleaner + Super Dryer combo helps make drying smoother: 💦 Apply Fast Cleaner to the still-wet body to improve glide.🧽 Super Dryer right after, to absorb the water without unnecessary rubbing. The result? Less friction, more control, and a more even dry. Save this combo for your next wash. 🚗 You can find all the products at mafra.shop—link in bio! #MAFRA #SOSCarCare #FastCleaner #SuperDryer #CarCare
