Cobalt refinish wheels?

[mikejl46]

Does anyone know the best way to fix these wheels, the corrosion is pretty bad? Any step by step turotials

Scrub rinse plasti dip

 

[mikejl46]

I did think about trying the plasti dip, but I think I'm just gonna sand them down. Already looks better with clear coat removed and one pass of a palm sander.

 

[djyeti]

Yeah way better. Are you going to re clear them?

 

[mikejl46]

I will probably hit them with some 400, 600, 800 grit wet then polish and see what happens, and then re clear coat them. I picked these wheels up cheap for my winter snow tires. If it turns out, I'll do the same to the ones on my car now, summer tires, that are also pretty rough looking.

 

[djyeti]

Nice. Clean wheels keep the car looking good

Looks better cleaned up a bit. Make sure you clear those again if you don't want them to oxidize like they did before.

Plastidipped my rims too.

Plastidip? What's that and how did you do it? I have steel rims, so not looking to make it as pretty as much as to not show the rust.

Sand blast them. Look on YouTube for sand blasting wheels looks a lot better than sanding and so.
