Accuride’s Newest Innovation in Wheel Coating Technology: ProShield XGT™ with “Extreme Gloss Technology” ProShield XGT™ is a proprietary multi-coat treatment for polished aluminum wheels that offers improved cleanability, enhanced shine, and improved corrosion resistance. Accuride wheels with ProShield XGT™ have been proven to show an 83% improvement in filiform corrosion protection over Accuride’s previous generation of wheel protection. Along with corrosion protection, ProShield XGT™ wheels feature a hydrophobic coating that repels dirt and contaminants (like brake dust), while still maintaining a great look and bright shine.

3-Step Coating Process We’ve developed ProShield XGT™ in conjunction with leading experts in the field of automotive coatings. After each wheel is polished, we apply a layer of Zirconium Oxide for improved corrosion resistance and adhesion and then add a polyester resin powder coat for a deep gloss shine. Finally, the wheels are treated with a proprietary hybrid coating that gives ProShield XGT™ its dirt and water repelling qualities.

ProShield XGT™ Repels Water FINISH OPTIONS CODE ProShield XGT™ creates a Extreme Gloss Technolog Improved cleanability, corrosion resistance, XGT hydrophobic layer that repels both and enhanced shine dirt and waterborne contaminants. Like a freshly waxed car, water beads on the wheel surface and simply runs Water bead on wheel off. Dirt, like brake dust, doesn’t stick to the wheel so it’s faster and easier to clean.
