Help with removing stains on wheels.

CodeB4US-10 · 05-14-2006, 04:13 AM

I been wanting to get get my wheels done up real nice. Like spend atleast a hr or more cleaning and polishing it nice. I sat down one day and saw lots of...what looks like water spots. I try cleaning it with diffrent cleaners. Still looks like it's there, Not as bad, But still can see the spots.

What can i use to take it off? Also i was thinking about getting the mothers buff ball... good deal?

Depends on what type of rims you got.

Im not sure really. Im really a import guy. So Chevy S-10's are new to me. But they are ZQ8 rims. Not sure about the yr. I know it's not the newest.

Here is a picture.

2/3 drop on it's way right now. I dont want the tires to tuck. Plus i have slicks that i wont fit if i do drop it that low. I just want a nicer stance.

looks like a good pic to me. and yes you do need to drop that truck. think about 3/4. i was originally going to go with 2/3, but it didnt seem like it would look right.

back on topic...use castrol superclean (the purple stuff), let it sit for a few second, and then scrub it with a brush and and old cloth, and it'll remove almost everything, but don't l,eave it on too long and be sure to rinse it off really well, because it's quite potent and can damage your rims.

I bought the mother's buff ball. I used some soap and water and it took some of it off.....well not off... It faded it where it's not so noticable. But im ganna try that Castrol Superclean. We have some of that @ work.

Will it harm the clear coat?
