Gave the Polished wheels a good clean!

Car  Petrol Blue 182.
Think this goes in here lol

Due to the salt on the roads, the polished lips on my wheels started to corrode.

gave them a qick wash with hot sapy water to remove some of the build up of brake dust etc. then i was able to see the extent of the damage the salt had begun to do.

Sorry for bad pics!
 
Looks like you've done a good job on the silver parts, I always find the middle the hardest. It really gets in to the metal there and corrodes quite badly!
