I imagine they could be cleaned up and polished using a chrome polish, but as far as the scratches (maybe even deep scratches) I'll have to subscribe to that.
I wonder if it's like paint and if the finger nail test comes into play here.
and Good luck

Re: Help with chrome wheels
The scratches may be in there for good. That looks like caked on brake dust. Have you tried a chrome wheel cleaner? I'm thinking DUB wheel cleaner and DUB metal polish would be a good combo.Comment

What a tragedy. To have chrome rims and let them look like that. But I agree with guz on the dubs, however by me u can't find it in any store. None of the auto stores, Walmart, meijers, target. So if that's the case for u to and u don't want to order it then mothers has an outstanding line of wheel polishes.Comment

Re: Help with chrome wheels
Would dub metal polish or medium cut polish be better? Or need both?Comment

Re: Help with chrome wheels
Speaking of the Dub Wheel Cleaner, I found some at my local Wally World on the clearance aisle...$3.00 a bottle. I bought 4 bottles of it, I will probably give away a bottle or two in the giveaway thread...Comment

... as with all correction, I'd start with the LEAST aggressive first & see how it works... proceed with caution.R. Smith
