So, my rims are damaged from what i believe is Mag Chloride. They are spotted and pieces that seemed to have flaked off have a shiny look. any ideas on how to repair this? is it even possible? oh, and the rims are just the stock MP5 alloys. Thanks!

4doord, Dave, took care of my rims for me. He knows of a place that fixes bent rims and refinishes them. They did awesome work on my rim. PM me and I can get you in contact with Dave if you don't have his number.

ok. im not looking to spend a whole lot of money on it...i had just hoped i could repair it from an aerosol can or something to that affect...haha since im only 15 i dont have a job to pay for a lot.

I know a guy as well that works at a place that refurbishes rims. Let me know if Dave can't help you out and I will get you some info

You could try a wheel cleaner from AutoZone or something to that effect.

alright thanks, i will see what i can do.

click the link self explanitory
most self wash carwashes have it as an option use it instead of pre-soak... works wonders for me

Could one of you post up info on how to contact either Dave, or the friend that works for a refurb place. I am wanting to get my wheels refinished bright silver instead of the black crome and have just a little curb rash on one wheel I would like worked out.......Thanks Greg
