wheel covers
wheel covers are hard to get clean,especially the plastic kind .
overhere,car manufacturers use a soft kind of plastic,that won't break,if you hi the side walk,when parking.
what i do,if i can't get them clean,i just re paint them.
it's very simple,and a nice touch.
use waterproof sandpaper and sand just a bit.degrease the cover,and take spray can of wheel silver.tape of the logo,and spray.
if you're not used to spray paint,try this:
fill your kitchen sink with warm water,and let the spray can stand in this water for a few minutes.this way the pressure will increase,
i wish i could explain in english why this happens,but i don't know the proper words.because the pressure increases,you have less paint coming from the nozzle,but a good pressure.this allows you to spray thin layers,with less chance for drips.
this is just what i do,but overhere almost every wheel cover is silver colored.
ciao
