You should be able to polish them out with mothers or a similar product. I have the same thing happen on occasion...I use bleach white for my tires and it eats the finish right off when i get it on my wheels..... Good luck

Re: Help Boyd's Are Stained!

I have had the same thing happen to my Boyds and many other of my billet wheels. And I actually used that same stuff before by mistake on my Boyds and they cleaned up too. Just get some good billet wheel polish and they should clean. Might take some time and muscle but they will shine again.

Re: Help Boyd's Are Stained!

i have boyds and i have used nothing but boyd cleaner, its made by heavy metal and you can get it direct from boyd. you probably need the more abrasive green rather than the blue. the green will run you about 14 dollars but its well worth it.
