Refurbing 2 colour minilites.

[C7 Owl]

All 4 of my minilite two colour wheels have what looks like oxidisation on the chrome / silver outside rim.  Black inners perfect.  Is there a product or technique to remove without full refurb.  Would love wheels to look undamaged when I change tyres shortly.  See pics in link.  https://photos.app.goo.gl/jkPYeP4EVPwhEhWU6

Thanks.

The looks like the lacquer on the wheels has 'gone' and water is now ingressing under the paint. The wheel(s) will need a full strip and repaint as far as I know.

Thanks.  Thought probably a full refurb.  Just thought I'd check if could polish it out.  Oh well.

The white worm is nearly always an issue with lacquered diamond cut wheels.

Depending on how much free time you have (and patience) you could wet & dry off the clearcoat and then polish the ally.

Try finding a good metal polishing place. I had my exhaust polished by a chap in Crewe and he had a set of (non-Caterham) wheels in with painted centres and the rims being polished using machine mops. He was doing a great job

Sounds worth a try.  I'll see if any machine polishers local and how price difference to a full refurb.  If not will try wet and dry then polish, and relaquer, make a hash of it then full refurb.  

Thanks
