Important Information Regarding Wheel Cleaning
Heritage Wheel is a specialty manufacturer of custom wheels utilizing advanced finishing techniques that differ significantly from OEM wheel finishes. Many commercially available wheel cleaners, particularly acid-based products commonly sold for OEM wheels, are not suitable for aftermarket custom finishes.
Use of improper wheel cleaning products, or improper use of any cleaning product, may permanently damage wheel finishes and will void all applicable warranties.
To preserve the appearance and integrity of your wheels, Heritage Wheel recommends cleaning using soap and water only.
