Sealant/Wax for clear coated painted rims
I noticed a few clear coat scratches on the rims of my car. After I cleaned the rims I used Meguiars ScratchX and it removed the scratches, but I want to find a product to put on the painted parts of the rims to prevent the scratches from coming back. Can anyone suggest a product to use?

Use a high quality brush such as a soft boar's hair wheel brush and/or wheel woolies paired with a good shampoo to provide plenty of lubrication. I'd recommend pressure rinsing as much of the dirt from the wheels before washing them to minimize the amount of dirt that is rubbed against the wheel.
As far as protection to help reduce brake dust and dirt buildup, you can't find anything quicker or easier than CarPro HydrO2.

PoorBoy's ph balanced wheel solution works great, with the right type of brushes like the other poster mentioned.
I would also have a separate bucket for the wheels, you don't want any of the brake dust ending on your paint job.
My new steam cleaning machine is on its way, so I will be experimenting with that as far as cleaning the wheels.
