Cleaning rims
I have the stock honeycomb rims, not the painted GTA rims. They are oxidized, and I was wondering if there is any way to save them? I read a thread here that said to get the paint off, you can use aircraft cleaner. Will that somehow clean them up a bit, or are they garbage? I'll get some pics up here soon to show you how bad they are.
Sorry if this isn't the right section to post in.

Im in the middle of doing mine. not fun at all. i also read the tech thread. striper, steel wool then polish. i have no paint on mine so thats one less step for me. be patient and youll get great results.

na. havent got around to getting a digital camera yet. there is a pic in the tech article section. mine dont look that good but i havent polished them yet. but there alot better then before even at this stage. id figure the honeycomb rim would be alot of work especially if you paint them, but they would look nice.
