Anyone know what this may be? It is in between the spokes on all four wheels. It is on there and won't come off even with strong degreaser or brake dust cleaner. It is smooth to the touch.
what cleaners are there to remove that greenish tarnish on that wheel? I know its most likely a build up of brake dust and heat, embedding itself on that surface.
what are some cleaners you guys/gals can think of to remove that?
i have that same problem on my wheels.
I was wondering if they were OEM or aftermarket star shaped chrome finish... Could it be the finish (chrome) wasn't applied correctly or ??? I suggest taking it over to a re-chrome place and asked them. Seems that some have it and some don't which makes me wonder.
I have the same on my 02 and no sign of tarnish however, I haven't had them all that long of a time.
Buy some wheel paint from an auto parts store. There are a few that match very well. Had to do the same to my Tundra years back. Careful prep is in order first for a lasting job. Replacements are also sold on Ebay.
