Wheel Rim Repair: Decision to Polish my Rims

As part of perfecting my car and fixing any defects I was unhappy with, I came to my Acura Integra car rims. At the time, they were my main rims, however they have now been replaced with a nicer set currently and have been retired as winter rims. Before, I got my better rims I decided to try and polish my wheels to learn and to see how it would look.

My thoughts were to either paint my rims silver or a gunmetal colour, or try and polish my rims to a nice shine. I decided to try and polish them first, and if it did not turn out as I wanted I could always paint my rims. Here is the initial pictures of the Wheel that had curb rash and other blemishes.

As you can see, something needed to be done if I wanted my wheel rims to look good to ride on. So I went ahead and ordered the products that I needed to continue with this body work type project.

Look forward to my next post detailing the tools I got to polish my rims!

Car body work repair is something that can be DIY. Take some time and you too can remove rust, paint your car's body panels and install exterior kits.
