New to this forum and have my first question. What do you recommend to remove some light clear coat scratches from an aluminum rim? The scratches are not deep at all, just annoying when light hits the rim at a certain angle. Thanks.

Re: Remove ClearCoat Scratches on Rims
You can treat the mjust like paint scratches on the body of the car. So if you have some SwirlX, or ScratchX 2.0 around, you can try those.2017 Subaru WRX Premium - WR Blue -

to MOL!
I've had good luck with M105 by hand on my wheels, just remember, from what I've read, the clear coat on rims are very thin so, you don't want to go to town on them.
Can't go wrong with SwirlX or ScratchX 2.0 either, start least aggressive first!
Keep us posted and put some before and after pictures and what type of wheels and your process (even dialing process) for future readers can scope it out

Keep us posted with pix and what not like I said!
There are no miracles in a bottle, so it may take more than one pass of using the product to get your desired results! I go up to three before moving on to a more aggressive product.
Have fun!Philippians 2:14 - Do all things without grumbling or questioning,Comment
