Did you use the foam block to apply the coating and then wipe it off with the suede cloth as you have got a great finish on gloss black wheels. I have used this Gyeon product on my VW Up GTI wheels and ended up with some smears on the gloss black part of the wheels. Also how did prep the wheels please before applying the coating

I used another applicator made of foam that's easier to apply the coating. And wipe it off with 3 cloth's which the last one is the suede cloth.
The wheel are polished in two steps with a Flex PXE and decreased with Gyeon prep, and then applied the Gyeon Rim.

You have to wipe the product thorough to avoid smears. I also did this with my GTI 19" wheels and winter wheel for the Z4.
All our cars are coated with glascoating. Z4 stands in Gyeon Mohs Evo now for 1.5 year.
