I have never lived anywhere that has had large amounts of snow/ice and sandy crap. My rims look horriable right now, even with some light scrubbing with a green dish cleaning pad it is still there. Even with very hard scrubbing it is still there. I was wondering if there is some type of rim cleaner I should use that wont damage my rims?

Thanks in advance,
Lazurus

On the rim face? Or on the lip? Are they painted or polished?

On my polished lips I would use 1000 grit wet sand to remove small imperfections and follow with 2000 grit wet sand. Finally hit it with billet aluminum polish on a Mother's Powerball.
