I managed to score a brand new wheel for £20 on another forum.
There wheel is new but was left on a car for a number of months and it looks like water has got under the lacquer.
Has anyone refurbed a wheel and if so whats your tips?

1968 Ford Fairlane 500 Wimbledon White. Currently a 302 auto but to be 410 4 speed.
They are not lacquered, it's a fine machined finish a bit like a record, corrosion gets in the grooves and you get that spotting. Fine wire wool and solvol gets a finish That's good enough for me, but then I don't like mirror finish.
