how do repair polished area of volks

hi,
i have some volk LE-37T gunmetal with polished lip....one of the wheels fell over, while installing them....the scratch is very minor....and only the edges of the polished area is damaged....does anyone know how i might be able to fix this....or maybe polish it out with repainting?

Volks use a anodized finish on the lips. Good luck trying to find a place that will repair it.

No, most wheel repair shops don't want to touch volk wheels. The anodized finish is very hard to repair and may look different from your other wheels once it's repaired. You can check out www.fixrim.com

Don't know, I know that polish is really easy to fix if you scratch it. Anodized is plated finish like chrome.
