Appearance classification of wheels

The appearance treatment process of wheels will be selected according to the characteristics and needs of the car model, and is usually divided into two categories: baking paint and electroplating.

For wheels of ordinary models, since there are not too many requirements for appearance, heat dissipation becomes the primary consideration. This type of wheel usually adopts a baking paint treatment process. After spraying and electric baking, it is both economical and colorful, and can last for a long time. Even if the vehicle is scrapped, the color of the wheel is still as new. On the market, many wheels of Volkswagen models have adopted this treatment process, and even some fashionable and dynamic colored wheels have widely used baking paint technology. This type of wheel is moderately priced and has various specifications.

Electroplated wheels are divided into various types, such as electroplated silver, water electroplated, and pure electroplated. Among them, electroplated silver and water electroplated wheels are popular among young people for their bright and vivid colors, but it should be noted that their color retention time is relatively short, so the price is relatively affordable, and the market price is usually between 300 yuan and 500 yuan. Pure electroplated wheels are favored by mid-to-high-end car models, such as Honda, Audi, and other brands, for their long-term color retention and high quality. Their prices are approximately between 800 and 900 yuan.

Painted wheels

As the concept of environmental protection becomes more and more popular, traditional paint coating technology and electroplating technology are gradually being replaced by water-based and powder coating technology. This technological innovation not only enhances the appearance of aluminum wheels but also reflects the commitment to environmental protection. After fine painting, aluminum wheels show fashionable colors such as fine silver, bright smoke gray, and sports silver. At the same time, combined with the fine machining of the spokes and the polishing of the wheels, and then sprayed with transparent powder, the surface of the wheels presents a metallic bright color. This design is not only environmentally friendly and exquisite, but also highlights the fashionable temperament, successfully replacing the traditional electroplating process.
