Painted Aluminum Wheel
Maintenance
Refer to Saf ety Precautions
Cast Wheels: Aluminum may corrode
from contact with dirt, mud, or road salt.
Clean the wheels after riding through any
of these substances. Use a wet sponge and
mild detergent. Avoid stiff brushes, steel
wool, or cleaners containing abrasives or
chemical compounds.
After washing, rinse with plenty of water
and dry with a clean cloth.
If the paint is chipped, apply touch-up
paint.
