Wtf!!

One of my dumbass friends took there ****ing finger and wrote "drowe is gay" on the lip of my dirty wheel. I thought it was funny at first until I washed it and realized it was scratched into the lip..

The main thing..Is there a polish or anything I could use to get this out??

Is there any quick polish job I can do to just buff it out. Or is it going to be a process that will have to be done to the whole lip or something.

I'm sure there is a polish. I forgot the name but it's out there. Sorry. You should be fine though with a slight polish. Hopefully

Well your friend should have had enough respect for your things as it is. Some people just don't think. And how the h*ll did he scratch it? Must have been on purpose. Just try getting some good polish and put some muscle into it. If that doesn't work, research some other options.

Yea idk, he said he didnt mean to and he thought it was just brake dust. But little pieces of sand and what not get in there and these lips are delicate. But yea im about to head up to advanced auto parts and try to polish it out. Will it look different than the rest of the lips, or the other wheels after im done??

Must be made by the same company that put the clears on Infiniti.

My nephew wrote "wash me" on my hood, and when I washed the car, the "wash me" was still there. I was pissed for a minute. A simple Scratch remover compound took care of it.

I just went out and bought some turtle wax chrome and metal wheel polish. All the of the others like meguires and mothers said not to use theirs for painted or clear coated wheels. But the turtle wax polish I got said it was ok. It help from what I can see but there are still small scratches. Its dark outside so we will see tomorrow morning.

Use a scratch remover like ScratchX.

i'd use some eagle metal polish that's safe on the wheels. I had this happen, but it wasn't any words. It was just me trying to rub off dust with my fingers and after a wash it was still there. A little polish will get that thing brand new. No more gay on your lip
