How to DIY refurb the flakey rims on my polished Azev A 's ?
Moderator: martauto
Can anyone tell me the easiest way to DIY on a wheel refurb.  In 100k they hav'nt been kerbed  
 .  However the polished rims have nearly all flaked off.  I'm dont want to pay the refurb costs because i am sure sorting the rims can not be too much work.
thanks

Firstly get the tyres taken off,then coat the rims with Paint/ lacour remover,each time the paint remover is doing it's stuff,takea stanley type blade and scrape away, repeat untill it's all gone, then i used a stainless steel pan scourer to clean the rim,lean more elbow grease with the metal polish 
			
									
									
						yeh i surpose paint stripper etc would work,  it would just be the type of prep required to get a sensible finish
