High Gloss Surface Coating & Window Tinting for NEW VWs by Dealership

[Kachingg]

No,but if you're spending $60K on a fully rigged Tiguan, $2K is worth it.

Yep i can agree it's a lot but the results are outstanding

Check the pomponazzi thread in the detailing section if your still interested

Is there a reliable treatment to help reduce brake dust on alloy wheels?

Water? ha ha sorry

I got the dealership 'Glasscoat' when i picked up my Tiguan
I haggled it for $595 and comes with a lifetime warranty
at this price i thought was pretty good and i couldn't be bothered outsourcing it
I thought something was better than nothing for this price.
Certainly makes cleaning the car easy that's for sure

Not really sorry you can get your wheels coated (i did on mine) it makes cleaning easier but nothing will stop brake dust

You can get ceramic brake pads which reduce the dust but don't eliminate it

Nothing beats good old elbow grease unfortunately

you'd rather be seeing more dust than less though
the more dust you see means your eating your pads rather than your rotors
i know what id rather be replacing

i cant remember if i saw that the Tig pads were LUCAS (TRW) which are renowned for being a dusty pad (but a very good pad)

True, as long as they're not squealing and chewing up the rotors I'm happy.
I guess no magic nanoparticles to eat up the dust on my alloys yet. Self cleaning cars would be a much better invention than self driving imho

There are a couple products available like this
I'm not sure how well they work though
Autoglym Wheel Protectant - 236g - Supercheap Auto

As per Kaching, just makes it easier to clean - Washing Opticoated wheels - YouTube

Reducing dust requires a change in pads but that will affect braking feel (ceramic pads usually have less grabbiness in the initial pedal travel - also have reduced dust).

Seems like many of us are interested in different products.. Still undecided considering my situation. Though it'll be easier to maintain and washing less often is appealing.
