Default zaino for waxing wheels?
If my wheels are essentially "painted" alloy wheels that have a clearcoat on them, can I use zaino Z2 on the wheels to wax the wheels, rather than having to buy an actual wheel wax?

I have painted wheels and polish/wax them with usual body paint, they were in bad shape, but was able to remove all the scratches and they looked great,

My wheels are powder coated and I use wheel wax 4 times a year nothing sticks to them.

I just started using Zaino the other night on my new wheels! 2 coats of the z-2 and damn they are slippery!! They are brand new, and off the car, so it makes it really easy.

I've been using Zaino on my wheels for about 5 years now. Works fine.

I use Z2 on all wheels, and then top it with Swissvax Autobahn.

The protection lasts forever, and looks amazing.

Using Wheel Armour on my wheels, just amazing.
Even after a track day, I only have to wash it with clear water and my wheels are back to life.
