Cleaning Rims

Hi! Just bought a 2013 Tundra, and there's some kind of residue on the rims. Just wondering if anyone here has seen this and what I should do to remove it. Seems like some sort of clear coat, but wanted to be sure before I start working on it.

 

Looks like oxidation, most steps similar:

Looks like clear coat failure or oxidized metal, will likely need to be sanded, polished and painted or powder coated. Or just plastidip those wheels, it won't prevent the issue from getting worse but is a cheap way to hide the damage

 

Clear coat has died. I simply scraped it off my wheels (fingernails and a nylon wedge shaped tool) and then polished and protect the now bare alloy.

 

I’m thinking of using a power washer to remove the clear coat. Bad idea?

 

It’s already toast. Can’t hurt anything.

 

Probably wont do much but go for it. Those wheels need to be sanded and body worked then painted
