Factory Rims heavily stained

Bought a neglected G35 from a dude with financial problems. The factory rims are stained but otherwise clean what do I do. I'm guessing this could be a several step process. Car just needs a little TLC.

Re: Factory Rims heavily stained

I believe all G35 OEM wheels are coated from the factory, so other than paint polishing your stuck. Might need to have them professionally stripped and then recoated.

Clay it first and get a mini power ball. Polish and use a wheel wax or sealant such as Aqua Wax or Opti Seal. BTW if the car doesnt have ceramic pads now, get it cause it will dust like crazy.
