Heylo. I was wondering the best way to go about cleaning the lip on my wheels. They have a lip of about 2" and it's looking pretty rough. The clear coat is coming off in a bunch of places and there is corosion starting in those places. The were used as winter wheels by the last owner. Just want to know the best steps to go about restoring them as best as possible!

Thanks a lot,
Dylan

Any ideas? I guess i'm going to pick up some alumin cleaner and some polishing compound and go from there.

Tips would be great!

If u want them new again, that polishing shit wont do anything since the clear is going. U have to sand sand sand then use some polishing compound with a zip wheel and buffer wheels. Afterwards you can then hadn polish with a cream and reclear.
