Powder coating is an incredibly durable finish, however, it isn't bullet proof or completely impervious to damage. Much like the paint on your car, powder coating should be maintained to ensure the longest lasting finish possible. Powder coated items should be routinely cleaned of pollutants that can settle on the finish and begin to degrade the coating.
We ONLY recommend using mild detergent soap and water to clean powder coating! Harsh chemicals and other cleaners can harm the finish.
This video explores the options of cleaning your powder coated wheels using a general 'wheel cleaner' and some of the pitfalls associated with it. We recommend using warm water with a mild detergent for the best, safest results. If you do decide to use a wheel cleaner, be sure to follow all directions listed on the wheel cleaner bottle.
