Best Wheel Protectant for abuse?
I take my car through a wash regularly since I park under a tree and don't have the full means to do things myself yet, so what's a good product to protect wheels as best as possible? I just got new ones..

I would suggest a polymer sealant on all your paint surfaces, as they are somewhat more resistant to the harsh chemicals used in a car wash (a wax will be gone after the first time through)
Tree resin (sap) and bird excrement will wreck havoc upon a paint surface, if you can’t avoid parking under a tree look into a car cover |

Rejex or Klasse AIO before mounting, maybe a couple of coats. Then any wheel sealant like PB wheel after every month and that should help keep them cleaner.

I would consider picking up Optimum Opti Coat.
It will be a permanent solution. |

How difficult is that to apply? The directions make it sound really tough for wheels. How much will a single tube protect?
