Can MAXL ONE be used on wheels, tires, and rims?Updated 2 hours ago

Short Answer

Yes. MAXL ONE can be used safely on wheels, rims, calipers, and even tires. It is heat resistant up to 600° Fahrenheit, so it can handle the high temperatures around brakes without breaking down. MAXL ONE cleans, protects, and adds hydrophobicity to every part of your wheel system, including metal, clear coat, plastic center caps, painted calipers, and rubber.


MAXL ONE works extremely well on wheels because Triphene technology bonds to the surface and makes brake dust, road grime, and water spots much harder to stick. Your wheels stay cleaner longer and feel noticeably smoother after application. A few sprays and a microfiber towel are usually all you need, but wheels tend to be dirtier than paint, so expect to use a little more product when cleaning them.

Calipers can also be coated with MAXL ONE. Since they get very hot, MAXL ONE’s heat resistance is a major benefit. Once applied, the caliper becomes smoother, darker, cleaner, and easier to maintain in the future.

MAXL ONE works great on tires as well. It does not make them shiny or greasy. Instead, it restores a rich, clean, dark new-rubber appearance. A couple of light sprays or half-sprays on a towel are all you need to deepen the color and clean the surface.

If you want a fast way to coat wheels or reach hard-to-get areas behind spokes and calipers, MAXEasy is a great option. MAXEasy uses the same Triphene technology and can be sprayed and rinsed onto clean wheels for instant hydrophobic protection.

If your wheels have stubborn water spots or mineral deposits, we recommend using MAXRemove first. MAXRemove helps break down hard contamination so MAXL ONE can bond to a clean surface afterward.
