MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION

Cleaning and Storage

Chrome Wheel Care (if equipped)

Proper maintenance will protect chrome wheels from corrosion,

preserve wheel life and ensure a “like new” appearance for many years.
1. Wash chrome rims frequently. Use a mild detergent to remove any

salt, dirt, mud or grime. Never use abrasive cleaners on plated or

painted surfaces.

2. Polish the clean chrome wheels periodically. Use an automotive

grade chrome polish.

3. Routinely and liberally apply a weather resistant wax to each

polished chrome wheel. Choose a product suitable for chrome

finishes. Read and follow the product labels and instructions.

4. Chrome wheels exposed to road salt (or salt in the air in coastal

areas) are more susceptible to corrosion if not properly cleaned.

Clean chrome wheels more often if they’re exposed to salt or other

corrosive elements.

Removing Corrosion
If light rust is found on the chrome finish, use steel wool (#0000-OTT

grade) to remove it. Gently rub the affected areas with the steel wool

until the corrosion has been removed. Clean and polish the wheel as

outlined above.
