GMC Wheel corrosion

[keakar]

yep steel wool a lot of beer and a radio is all you need.

plan to do one wheel a day or even a weekend because your hand will be cramping up and numb by the time you finish one wheel.

I suggest you use wd40 or regular motor oil in the beginning to remove the rust and it wont dry like water so its less messy if you can believe it.

when you think your finished then wash it off with soap and water and give it a final polish with car wax and a fresh new steel wool pad then do a final shine with rubbing compound and a buffer ball.

after all that hard work, I suggest you clean it very well, wipe it down with either and tack clothe before you give it a clear coat paint so you don't have to repolish them every few weeks. its a whole lot of work but they will look new when you are done.

also its best to cut off the valve stem because you will never get it clean and polished around it with it still there and if you try, it wont be in great shape after anyway.
