Any suggestions on how to clean some HRE wheels? I plan to get them totally polished and repair in a few months but until then, any suggestions? I tried to search on forum for discussion but unable to put in the right search words. thanks!
As long as the wheels don't have any clear coat, you can pretty much use any metal polish and buff that sucker out. But as a disclaimer... check with HRE.
as far as im aware, the previous owner had the front wheels in chrome finish while the rear in polished. im not too sure if they have clear coat on them
I think the easiest way to tell is that if you don't have a clearcoat and have polished wheels, they begin to haze up after about a week after polishing them. That's because the aluminum begins to oxidize.
If it has a clearcoat, or is anodized, the finish doesn't generally doesn't oxidize or haze.
Hey Ryan; you got a sick car! your HRE wheels look fine right now after an hour with a towel,elbow grease. I was just so happy to finally drive my car this season! I'm going to get the HRE's totally done this fall. I just bought some 18, 19 BBS LM's.
