Gtechniq C5 Wheel Armour is a professional-grade ceramic coating engineered to protect your wheels and brake calipers from brake dust, road grime, and harsh contaminants. Designed with the same Smart Surface Science as Gtechniq C1 and C4 coatings, C5 chemically bonds to metal and painted surfaces for up to two years of unmatched protection, all in a single application.

Key Features & Benefits
🔹 2-Year Durability – Provides long-term protection from dirt, salt, and brake dust buildup, reducing the need for aggressive cleaners.
🔹 Repels Brake Dust – Keeps your wheels significantly cleaner for longer, making maintenance washes faster and easier.
🔹 Extreme Heat Resistance – Safe for use on high-temp areas like brake calipers and inner barrels—won’t degrade under stress.
🔹 Professional Ceramic Formula – Bonds at the molecular level for outstanding chemical resistance and surface protection.

How to Use
Step 1: Clean your wheels thoroughly and decontaminate if necessary. Dry completely.
Step 2: Wipe down with Gtechniq Panel Wipe to remove any oils, waxes, or residue.
Step 3: Shake the bottle and apply a few drops to the supplied lint-free applicator pad.
Step 4: Apply evenly to one wheel or caliper at a time.
Step 5: Immediately buff off excess with a Gtechniq MF1 ZeroR microfiber towel.
Step 6: Allow the coating to cure for 12 hours before exposing to moisture.

Pro Tip: Only coat clean, cool wheels in a shaded or indoor environment. C5 does not add gloss, making it ideal for matte, satin, or bare-look finishes. For large wheels or full face + barrel coating, opt for the 30ml size.
