Rim Resto - willcann - 04-30-2010

So i bought these rims a week or two ago from kijji for 100bux. The guy had them for winter rims on his svtf. i was surprised that they didn't have any rash and seemed straight.
First pick of when i got them, they looked bad all the clear had gone black and started to peal

Looks great. My bud is looking to fix up his winter weathered Lightning rims. Any special step-by-step formula to get great results?
