so, i asked the lot tech if he wanted to make a few bucks and specifically told him, don't put anything on the wheels, and dry them first, since they are reg alloys

the other tech starts to help him, and first thing he does is spray acid wash on one of the @#$!#$%%^ wheels.

So, now it's all spotted and shit. anyway to bring the wheel back to how it was?

Are these the racestar wheels? If so maybe send a PM to insaneba to see about polishing them.

alot of rubbing with some mothers billet polish or adams metal polish would do it

Yep, lots of rubbing with polish. I had the same thing happen and had great results with Wenzol (SP)?

From my unfortunate experience with this exact situation on some Centerlines, only way to fix it is a repolish.
