Hey guys,
The wheels on my truck are aluminum American Racing Torq Thrusts. The lip is polished aluminum, the centers are light gray paint with a rough texture. The lips were in desperate need of polishing, so I a Mothers powerball on them. Problem is I got the black residue on the painted part. Is there anything that removes the black stuff. Tried some household cleaners and a lot of brushing with a stiff brush, no luck. Thanks in advance. |

You might could try a little wax and degreaser...bad thing is its expensive..and if it dont work..well Might be best to swing by a body shop and see what they say..

Re: Black stain on painted wheel center
Thanks, you talking something like Simple Green? Or more potent than that?
I could also just powerball everything to make it all match if I have to. |

Re: Black stain on painted wheel center
No, wax and degreaser is what you wipe all the contaminants off metal with prior to painting..
That's why I said drop by a bodyshop and see if they'll wipe it down,,,, but try a tiny spot 1st to see if it affects the paint though
