    Rust Around Wheel Valve Stem

    I tried claying it...Not sure what else to do...Do I need to have the wheel refinished? I am somewhat tempted to wetsand it but I have no buffer pad small enough to get in there to smooth out the sand marks. Interestingly out of 4 wheels this is the only one with this problem... Any help...

    Applying Klasse Sealant Glaze after Klasse AIO

    Wetsanded for First Time - Need Expert Review - Huge Photos

    I have had this scratch on the door of my M3 and finally got up the courage to wetsand it. I applied touchup paint with a toothpick and let it dry for 48 hours. (Actually I tried Langka 3 times before that but the blob eliminator turned my blob into a divot). I used 3M 2,000 grit "wetsanding"...
