Thanks Guys Yeah I have relaxed my efforts for now. Id say a paint job is in order but $$ is the draw back for now. I dont think it ever had a clear coat to be honest but was unsure. Im not a paint expert by any stretch. The car was repainted a few years ago before I got it. I had thought It...

good luck, Im glad this helped some people save some $$

Ok.. going at it again.. new buffer.. now stronger buffer.. kinda cutting them but not completly. I have a few questions about rubbing compound.. cuz maybe im doing it wrong. I stop and clean my wool pad when it gets gumed up with wax and the pad is pulling color with it each time.. is it normal...

Im gonna keep diging deeper (wet sand, compound and buff) if i dig too deep ill have no choice but to paint it ;) either way the spots will get out at some point :) Got another brand compound to try.. maybe the ultimate by mguires just isnt agressive enough.

Hey when you go to order your centers look at summit for these.. Link >> http://www.summitracing.com/parts/WVI-2021-1/?rtype=10

By the way these are Magnums, just not the chrome 500s. They were gloss black to begin with, I thought about going with the argent silver but wanted a different look. I have the beauty rings still but got tired of them... 2 of mine have some rash from previous owner. I could just replace them...

finished off with red outline Not perfect but i like the look.

I painted my brake drums with caliper paint.. painted my rallys satin blk and took off the beauty rings.. why? Cant afford wheels.. tried hubcaps.. nah... See pics>>> http://www.forbbodiesonly.com/moparforum/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1696

Sorry forgot to explain pic.. ya gotta look at edge where trees reflect to see the spots remain.

Look at your wheel cylinders.. check the seals to see if they are cocked out a little.

Heres a pic after your method...

I tried your method.. what does the mineral spirits do? It didnt help me :( Maybe mineral spirts after compound?

thanks. Ill try.
