Essential Guidance - Fitting adhesive weights to new or refurbished wheels

New or refurbished alloy rims may have coatings and lacquers applied to the alloy surface. Also when the rim paint is being dried, waxes can come to the surface creating a low surface energy (non-stick) and not allowing the adhesive weight to properly bond to the rim.

Trax professional Adhesives

The TRAX “PROFESSIONAL” adhesive weight range has been introduced due to demand for higher levels of bonding ensuring that weights do not fall off.

Ideal for general tyre shop use offering a high level of bonding for alloy wheels and “all weather” fitment.
