Re: simple green on tires
It sounds like you need to sand/ buff them out. It can be done a number of ways. I've polished raw cylinders on my quads going through all grades of sand paper using wd40. You have to make sure you sand out the previous scratches. Starting with 220 and ending with 2000. It's a pain in the butt, but its cheaper than paying someone. My point is, depending how bad the rims are, you can work them back to brand new looking. If your rims aren't bad, you can start with a higher paper. Since your rims are already polished, you probably could start with 800 grit.
You could also use a hand grinder with buffing wheels. You can use the typical 3 steps of polishing compound. I usually finish with mothers, but it actually dull the aluminum if you buff them properly with the correct compounds.
