522 Maintenance
protect the rims from discolouration, oxidisation and
unnecessary wear, regular maintenance is required.
For additional protection a protective wax must be
used, e.g. when driving is slush, salted roads or
environments close to the sea.
Damage to the rim's paint must be remedied
immediately to prevent corrosion.
Clean the rims regularly. First flush with water,
preferably using a high pressure washer. Use a brush
or sponge to clean the rim.
For stubborn dirt, an alkaline cleaning agent (pH>7)
may be used.
