I have a couple spots on my wheels that the previous owner allowed moronic tire installers to put wheel weights on the outside.
I am looking at vintage 91' BBS rims on my 91 Rx7 Convertible. They're flawless, not a single ding on them. Alluminum alloy material, but I want to try and find an alternative to micro grit sanding it off and then bringing it to a profesional for $300 to recoat them.
Any suggestions on how to get out microdeposites of brake dust in slight pit spots on rims as well as wheel weight spots that doesn't involve sanding or restoration?
I've already tried a low based ph cleaner and let sit for 30 seconds and tried to clean. Still can't do anything... and quiet frankly I'm not letting an alkaline based cleaner sit on the rims for more than 30 seconds before cleaning.
