Hmm...this is a quote from the description of WheelWax:

WheelWax is safe for all factory and aftermarket wheels-- chrome, painted, anodized, polished aluminum or clear coated. WheelWax is actually a polymer and contains no wax which would melt and cause wheels to attract more brake dust.

It says it contains no wax.

Interesting--their site apparently contradicts itself:

Q - Is WheelWax safe for my clear coated wheels and how is WheelWax different from other wheel polish?
A - Yes, WheelWax is clear coat safe and has a clear coat sealer to protect from cracking. WheelWax is not a polish, it is a cleaner and wax that is formulated with space age polymers and resins, heat resistant sealant and carnuba wax, which provides the ultimate protection for wheels.

Q - How long will WheelWax last?
A - WheelWax was fomulated to last longer on wheels then any other product on the market;however,the lasting power of WheelWax will depend on how often the wheels are cleaned,and what product is used to clean the wheels. To double the life of WheelWax on your wheels use WheelWax Auto Shampoo and Wax which contains carnauba wax and is a mild shampoo to baby your wheels.
