I wouldn't be so worried about holding up to brake dust and grime and stuff as I would heat from the brakes. You have any idea how that would effect this stuff?It takes a lot of heat from a heat gun to get this stuff to form quickly, so it takes heat fine. I don't believe I have ever heard of a wheel reaching that temp, cause if it did, what would happen to the rubber of the tire??? I've seen glowing red rotors in rally's, but I haven't seen the wheel get that hot. We have tested cleansing the stuff (grease, oil, dirt from the back shop), and it cleans up fine...
I may be wrong on my overall opinion on the heat of the wheel, but I will stand beside the product and if you get the wheels done and it melts or fails due to heat, I will give you a credit for the price paid for the wheels, towards wrapping other products in carbon.

Yeah that is true, I guess I don't know how much heat from the brakes is ever actually transferred to the wheel. And I'm sure the wheel is probably more exposed to moving air all the time which cools it down. The design of the wheel and alot of other issues would probably play into it as well it was just something that had crossed my mind.
