Default Restoring rims ....

I've heard of some people refinishing their rims by themselves ..... does any one know how to do this?? I have a coulpe of little scratches that I want to get rid of .... nothing like curb rash.

I have a 2nd set of old wheels I wanna mess around with that have curb rash, how could I get those out?

Does any1 know how to do the procedure??


Thanks in advanced!!!

-Ash

You have to sand them downand then refinish the whole wheel.
