SEP Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Bought another set of wheels last weekend. They have several scratches on them but most don't seem deep just on the surface. I haven't tried anything yet since i'm going to swap them out in a few weeks for the winter ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkman2008 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Wet sanding is going to create MORE scratches that will then have to be polished out. So why introduce more scratches into a finish without trying to remove the ones that are there first by using a much less destructive technique? So many folks are quick to think about wet sanding without realizing this or realizing just how destructive wet sanding actually is. Or, they will try to wet sand out a scratch that is way past wet sanding. Polishing with a more aggressive polish or polisher is always a better alternative, if you possess the skill to do so. Once you commit to wet sanding, you may find yourself in a neighborhood that is not so friendly, especially if this is not a skill that you possess. By the way, that's going to be hard to fix with a PC, but it can be done if you're patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marylander Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I would defiantly try the 4" Focal Pads!Adam's Focus 4" Polishing Pad Kit I'm with Chris. I once had some similar scratches on clear coated wheels, and the 4 inch pads with shr and then fmp got them back to top shape. Give that a try first; I bet you'll be ok.

Jonathan. Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I would not suggest wet sanding that type of rim unless absolutely required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
