Latest project is a '59 Corvette FB Marketplace score. It's crusty for sure, but it's complete and cleaning up pretty well. In my Fresh Finds post, I mentioned that I cleaned a spot on one of the rims with a steel brush, and a couple of folks pointed out that steel can scratch the chrome and that a brass brush would be safer. So today I hit HF and stocked up on brass brushes.
But I'm lazy, and when I saw this wheel on the pegs, I had visions of an effortless wheel cleanup with an electric drill. Any reason not to use this on old Schwinn chrome rims?
