I have ROH 1994 Firehawk wheels on my car, I had a guy polish the outside trim back to chrome but he didn't clear coat them, said you don't need to!

Now everytime I wash the car or get a small amount of water on them, they like oxidize, and there's spots all over them, then you have to get out the chrome polish again.

What can I do to stop this?

Thanks

try putting some kind of wax on them after you polish them. dont know if this would work on your rims but i found spraying them with some kind of tire shine like eagle one, and then wiping it off keeps the brake dust from sticking so maybe it'll help with the oxidizing.

 

I would try clear coating them, Honesty i would take them back to the dork who said they didn't need it because he told you wrong for some reason beyond me, i don't know why he would tell you that unless he just doesn't have any common sense.

 

you can clearcoat them, but if you dont do a good job, you will have more of a problem than you started off with, try a good wax, and see if you like that, any wheel is a pain in the *** to keep clean
