Default Fuch anodize spotting

Yep I did it should have known better and Im sure Im not the only one. Slowly getting the car driving and went to the wash today. Picked up some tire wheel cleaner and let it spot up the the outer ring. I have read here and there and the best way is to strip and redo but that's not in the plans for now. I saw WD 40 to vasaline. What ever potion has worked for anybody just to improve what I got. May be when the winter season gets here Ill revisit a full refresh. I do want to ask this If I get ahead of the game would a media blast be safe. I understand pressures and the actual media product itself is important just ran into mixed thoughts. But for now whats easy and even a small improvement is better than nothing.

Edit If I had better grammer.

I've been using PB Blaster on some of the aluminum parts on my cars that show that white corrosion and it does a pretty good job of making everything look pretty uniform. If you're really worried about media blasting affecting the structure of the wheels, I think that you can do it with plastic media and not worry about damage. That's what gets used on 928 intakes to make sure that any residual media won't grenade the engine. Should be fine for wheels.

Good luck
