you do realize alot of wheels have clearcoat either from the factory where the car was produced of the wheel manufacture does it.

yah... thats from the factory...

right after they go through a very long expensive chroming process... the rims are tip top perfect w/ absolutely no dust dirt on... clean as a whistle...

so if you miss a spec its there for good... I personally wouldn't mess with such an expensive process...

just a personal tip...
