20" flower rims scratches....

[14SHOCAR]

When I purchased my car in March, I bought it with a few scuffs on the factory rims. I am starting to see some corrosion of the rims, and I would like to know what I should do to stop the rusting / corrosion of the rims? I've seen polishing wool, and a few other items, my bigger questions is how to do I seal/machine polish the rim again so it doesn't keep corroding?

Do they use a clear on the rim from the factory?

Images to follow:

Still blowing up the threads with questions There is so much knowledge here!

The factory wheels come clearcoarted from the factory so you will need to redo the clearcoat after you fix the scratches.

I had polished. And clear coated. Aluminum wheels before that I carefully. Sanded the scratches away with several steps of grit. Finished with 2000 wet grit.  Then got aluminum polish and worked that a couple times. And waxed the wheels. But that was polished wheels

To match the machined/textured finish I would suggest finding a good wheel refinisher and seeing what they can do.
