Re: In a hurry, made a bad choice, now I need help.

Try chrome polish. I have used the cone drill attachments on wheels with good results. Just start off slow until you work the polish in then kick it up. If that doesn't work I would bring it to the dealer and complain that the wheels can't withstand 1 car wash without getting scratched up. Chrome is a PIA to take care of no matter if real, clad, plated, plastic...........etc.

So how do I know it's safe for my wheels?

Chrome rim cleaner then chrome polish is my vote

Sorry to say this...but anytime you scratch any kind of chrome, you are basically SOL.

Try the polish by hand, if that doesn't work then try the polish with the cone/drill, low speed check your work, then med, then high. If this doen't work you are probably SOL. Try complaining to the dealer and GM, maybe get new covers out of it and lessoned learned.

That may sound simple but a few years ago I had a friend put polish on his rims and they were permanently hazed and foggy when he was finished.
