My poor Fuchs were exposed to the spray of our sprinklers last year (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) . This is what they looked like.
  I had tried to do this by hand but I couldn't rub fast enough or hard enough so I resorted to this:  Only took about 25 mins per wheel.   I painted the lug nuts to match the bead blasted ares on the wheel.  |

Wow, they came out great! Amazing how that sprinkler water can ruin stuff so fast.

Any automotive paint store has it QUOTE(Cuda911 @ Feb 8 2015, 07:52 PM) Wow, they came out great! Amazing how that sprinkler water can ruin stuff so fast. Word! I didn't give it a 2nd thought until I touched them and realized it wasn't mineral build up but "pitting" which had begun to take hold! Yikes!
