Re-clear coating wheels?

mreloc · 03-04-2006, 06:11 PM

Just received some OEM wheels that were delivered via Fedex. Unfortunately, the way they were packaged for shipment (cardboard zip-tied to the front of the wheel) was loose and rubbed scratches into the face of the rims.

Tried Zaino's rubbing compound (supposed to be magic

) but it didn't take out the deeper scratches.

Can these be re-clearcoated? About how much should it cost?

I would send those Mo-Fo's back.

Not sure on the re-clearcoat thing but I'm sure a paint shop could do it. May not look exactly right though.
