Ruined my rims

[Guest kreampuff]

I've ruined my stock C180 CGI rims. I've used off the shelf polish and have scrubbed away my clear coat so my rims are now grey and stain like no ones business.

What are my options. Can C&C or some other person polish and re-clear coat them until they are like new? Or am I looking at having to replace them.

If u really luv e rims, can consider the restoration by our site advertiser 21inches. Really bling bling. Not cheap thou.

[Guest blackmercs]

Cycle had a promo not too long ago to restore rims ..... I spoke to them and they quoted about $600 for 4 rims .... suggest that you call Pandan Branch. I spoke to a Malay gentleman but I could not remember his name. The promo was in one of the previous newsletter.

[Guest twisti]

time to upgrade your rims :biggrin:

[Guest kreampuff]

Thanks, All. Will try C&C. Just not enjoying the idea of having to take leave from work to deal with this.

I've polished rims for as long as I can remember and it never so powerful until it scrubs away the clear coat. If liddat, the whole car's paintwork would be ruined after a polish.

Can elaborate what did u use? Was it one of those rim cleaners?
