spots on chrome wheels?
I posted this message in the detailing section but thought I would try here as well. Anyone have an LS430 w/chrome wheel option that has had a similar problem?
I recently purchased a Lexus LS430. Car has chrome wheels with what I am assuming are rust spots. I have used griot's garage heavy duty wheel cleaner with the finest grade steel wool...no luck. Picked up never dull yesterday...nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is pic:

- Spray bottle with water.
- Folded sheet of aluminum foil.
Spray mist of water on foil and rub gently. Rust should turn to black liquid and wash away, replaced with aluminum oxide. Then apply polish / wax of your choice.
