Any tips to buff out light scratches on chrome lips.which products/compounds to use for best results.Google has stumped me kinda looking to just separate the rims completely and send out lips for re chrome if it really comes down to it.rather not do that is there's a cheaper DIY out there.thanks guys

+1 for Son, but he's only local to socal isn't he? I've had a wheel repaired by him before and he did an amazing job!

Also, Son can only do repairs on non chrome wheels. You need to have the lips rechromed based on what I have gathered.
