  • Scratchx on rims

    Can you use Scratchx on rims to remove little scratches? My rims are the stock rims.

    If they are clearcoated, then it could help with minor ones.

      I guess i have a stupid question. Is there any way to tell if a rim is clearcoated other than looking up the spesifications?

        Well, here is what I know...

        If you take a metal polish like Nxt and rub it on bare metal, you will get black soot.

        If the cloth stays clear/poliosh colored, then it is coated.

        I do not know if a paint cleaner will have the same effect.

          Paint cleaner won't do anything to metal wheels from what I have seen. More than likely your wheels are clear coated and ScratchX will be okay. I need to get some for my wheels and do a little TLC with them off.
