Hi all,



Wondering if anyone could give me some pointers regards to refurbishing these BBS centre caps. These were produced for MK1 MX5's back in the 90's, so many sets are now showing their age. The outer rims of these I had cleaned up at the same time as the original 14'' wheels, but the central hexagon nut has some faded black paint.

What would be the best way to get these back to a 'new look'? I've had reccomendations to sand them down gently and paint the hexagon edge with hammerite... But how would you detailing experts go about it. :-)

Thanks in advance.

Find a local detailer with a Rupes iBrid & they'll have those black centres machine polished in about 5mins.

cheers
