Just curious.. exactly what type of finish did (non-LE) Mahles originally have and what methods have you found to be effective in returning them to their former glory?
i.e. Does silver paint/powder look right? were they just clearcoated? Is the casting hard enough to be media blasted? RUSS |

Pelican can get it for you.
I stripped the wheels with oven cleaner, painted with Wurth Silver, and clearcoated. New center caps and bolts... Here is what you get! Attached image(s)
