Default wheels with no lacquer

i have bought some wheels for my car and they are not lacquered

other than lacquer what sort of protection can i use on them?

they are a polished face finish, so i dont want them to fall into corrosion or other problems

is there something i can put on them that will protect them from corrosion? i know theyre high maintenance wheels, but im looking for the lowest maintenance technique possible

frosts restorations do a spray on clear product for polished metal surfaces like ally chrome stainless etc that sprays straight onto a highly polised clean item and is really tough plus come cleaning time they will only ever need a quick wipe, ill try and find a link for you its really good stuff

People who ride motorbikes (that are generally crap build quality) all year round swear by this stuff.
