On my company trucks (F450's) we have Alcoa classic wheels

We end up spending a lot of time trying to clean these as the jobsites we go on often have mud and worse.

Is there a clear coat, or clear powder coat I should use on these?

Yes.

You could either wash and polish them all the time. Clear powdercoat is also a possibility.

Or you can go with ShineSeal http://www.shineseal.com/

I used their older product on a pair of Akron bare aluminum polished motorcycle wheels. They went on a bike that was run at Bonneville on the Salt Flats for the next three years. During that time the wheels were only washed off with water. After 20+ years they still look just like new. The product was named Zoop Seal when I used it.

I am sold on their stuff. Watch their video. it's not a simple wipe and done installation. And when they say to use distilled water, they are not kidding.

And here is review and test from here on SVTP http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?749233-Shine-Seal-Review

I used to use zoop, but could not find it anymore.

My FE intake and water pump are still protected by zoop after 6 years.

I will give shine seal a try, THANK OMM!
