0 Sizzle Chest Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 My 2006 ZO6 had clearcoated polished wheels from the factory. Post up some pics of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BKazzle Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Sounds like they are NOT clear coated. (taking a guess from your description) You won't get any color transfer from clear coated wheels unless they are dirty. Seems odd though. EDIT: hmmm...from what other people are saying; they are. But you shouldn't see anything on your towel from a clear coated wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 scootertrash19 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Yes, OEM were clear coated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Truckie Posted May 9, 2013 Author Share Posted May 9, 2013 Yes, OEM were clear coated! So have I screwed the clear now? I had " another Vendors" medium cut, and finish polish and used the foam cone drill attachment..... I guess I will try the ADAMS clear coat polishes NEXT and see what that does...

0 scootertrash19 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) So have I screwed the clear now? I had " another Vendors" medium cut, and finish polish and used the foam cone drill attachment..... I guess I will try the ADAMS clear coat polishes NEXT and see what that does... How do they look, any peeling/fading/discoloration? If you can post up some pics. Hopefully the clear coat is o.k., if not it will have to be removed, then you can go several different ways to refinish. Sorry, Forgot to ask, are these CHROME, if so they are NOT clear coated, the Polished and painted OEM wheels are Clear coated, chrome was not.

0 Truckie Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 Looks to me like Base corvette wheels and seem to have a coating... I really quickly did one yesterday with a Dnyocone and all 3 Adams polish steps and it helped then sealed it... IF I really spend time on each wheel they should be fine...
