Anyone here ever strip their stock wheels and refinish?
I just want them to be chrome-y & shiny, so not interested in painting. I'm considering refinishing my own which look like the first picture below only covered with dark ugly corrision. Or I might try looking for something from a Envoy as seen in the second picture and refinish those. I live in winter hell so the best you can get locally is gonna need repairing. Question: is the stripping process the same for either type? Will corrorision come off the Envoy type in any way that will leave the polished look intact, or will that be destroyed in the process? Can it be sanded and saved or are they just beyond repair? Advice and any finished project pics welcomed!
Thanks!
