FEYNLAB® Ceramic Wheel And Caliper
FEYNLAB® CERAMIC WHEEL AND CALIPER was developed to protect from harsh conditions of vehicle wheels and turn wheel cleaning into easy mode!. This THICK & Durable ceramic nano coating invites extreme conditions because it was designed for high temperatures and a constant barrage of intense contamination.
CERAMIC WHEEL AND CALIPER Benefits:
With an extremely high solids content (70%), FEYNLAB® CERAMIC WHEEL AND CALIPER will stand up to the daily beating delivered by road contamination and brake dust.
FEYNLAB’s™ true nano technology and bonding chemistry allows for an unparalleled level of protection since the formula penetrates further into the existing paint structure than anything else available.
Durability & Application Surfaces:
Durability: 1 Year
The application includes 1 component layer, reaching an overall film build between 1-2 microns.
APPROVED SURFACES FOR APPLICATION ONLY: – DO NOT apply to unapproved surfaces
- Clear-coated painted wheel rims & calipers
- Chrome surfaces
Shelf Life:
Unopened – 1 year. Opened – Use within 7 days.
Included:
30ml (1oz) FEYNLAB® CERAMIC WHEEL & CALIPER
Cautions:
Always wear a respirator & gloves during application. Ensure the application area is free of loose contamination.
Paint Preparation:
Thoroughly clean wheels & calipers using FEYNLAB® PURE WASH vehicle to remove all topical contamination. Follow with a topical decontamination clay treatment using FEYNLAB® PRIME. If necessary, use a ferrous iron removal product to remove all embedded iron deposits. After cleaning and polishing to the desired level, remove all polish oils using FEYNLAB® PANEL PREP to ensure optimal bonding and durability of the coating.
Directions:
Prior to application place the vehicle in a well lit, temperature controlled 10°C-30°C (50°F-85°F), & contamination-free environment. Have plenty (6 or more) new microfiber towels, 2 or 3 microfiber sponge applicators, 1 foam applicator on hand BEFORE application.
Shake WHEEL & CALIPER vigorously for 2 min before use. Open the bottle and allow the coating 1min of air exposure.
CERAMIC WHEEL AND CALIPER – Application Instructions:
- Apply a small amount of CERAMIC WHEEL & CALIPER to a microfiber applicator and spread evenly over the wheels or calipers. The amount of product should be enough to evenly coat the area without over-saturation.
- Allow CERAMIC WHEEL & CALIPER to dwell for 25-30min. Dwell times over 40 min make removal MUCH more difficult.
- After application is complete, remove coating in same pattern as application with a Microfiber towel.
Recommended Maximum Area of Application:
Coat 2 full wheels, or 4 wheel faces, then wipe off; following the same pattern as application.
Best Practice: Combine WHEEL & CALIPER with OVERCOAT. This powerful combination provides wheels with: durable protection, extraordinary hydrophobic and self cleaning traits, and incredible ease of maintenance.
Final Inspection:
Be sure to carefully inspect all finished panels for any leftover coating residue (high spots) during the final wipe. Commonly edges, emblems, and other tight areas may contain some remaining residue. High spots are much easier to remove if caught within a 20-40 min window after the final wipe, than later when the coating has set and curing has started.
Layering:
Although one layer of CERAMIC WHEEL AND CALIPER is sufficient to achieve the 1 year durability on clear-coated painted surfaces, another coat may be applied to any area to gain additional thickness.
To layer CERAMIC WHEEL & CALIPER, wait at least an hour after final wipe off of first layer. For best results and performance wait 1-3 hours between second later. Do NOT layer after 3 hours.
Infrared Curing (Required):
Bake each panel with an IR lamp to reach a surface temperature of 60°C (140°F) for 15min at a distance of ~ 30-36″ from the panel.
Post Application Instructions:
- Avoid any incidental water exposure for 24 hours. If it occurs, gently wipe water off the surface.
- Avoid all chemicals including car washes for 7 days.
- If the vehicle must be released in wet conditions before 24hrs after the final coating, then apply FEYNLAB® DETAILER after 2-4 hours of curing time.
- Wash & Maintain using FEYNLAB® PURE WASH or FEYNLAB® PURE RINSELESS.
Climate Notes:
All FEYNLAB® Coatings are subject to different dwell and curing time windows due to humidity and temperature. In General, the higher the humidity level the quicker the coating will cure. If the humidity level approaches 75% or higher then consider lessening the recommended dwell and wipe times for the coating.
Additionally moving air will decrease coating dwell times for areas it contacts. Therefore, it is recommended to stop all moving air as much as possible during coating applications to ensure consistency for all portions of the vehicle.
Coatings are best applied in temperature-controlled environments of 10°C-30°C (50°F-85°F), with humidity as low as possible.
