Turbo Wheel Cleaning

[Cool87GN]

I just bought some turbo wheels that need to be cleaned badly. What is the best thing out there? It also looks like it had a fix-a-flat used (there's a ton of gunk inside the wheel). What can I use to get rid of this? Thanks,

MURIATIC ACID

Where & How Much?

John, where can you buy this & how much does it cost? Does it have to be diluted? Thanks,

Places like home depot or leows sell it for a couple dollars a gallon. I used to just use it straight when I had TType wheels. Removes stains and gets them to all one color. Try to avoid breathing the strong fumes. Another thing you could do is buy "bumper chrome" silver paint at any auto parts store. Just clean and degrease the wheels and paint them. Here's a picture of what you can expect...........

Thanks john!

Do you use a brush and scrub to clean the wheels? And how many coats do the wheels need (chrome paint)? Your wheels look perfect!!

Sure.......scrub em up! Can't hurt them. That paint covers pretty fast. A couple of coats will work. You have to do them over whenever they look dingy. Clean em up and paint again. No problem.

Thanks John!

It looks to be pretty easy & you can't argue with the results!

I had no problems & the wheels look great now!
