Good afternoon all. I am killing my stay at home time trying to buff and clean all the shiny parts. I have the turbine type wheel covers, which are in pretty good shape. I'm want to buff the steel a bit without damaging the black parts in the turbine section or the white in the center. I also want to freshen up the black and the white paint on the covers. any tips or direction on where I can get some info? do I just carefully hand paint the painted sections?

As always, thanks.

You can mask off the painted areas so you can use a buffing wheel with rouge. Green is recommended for stainless steel but white brown black or blue can be used.
Can be a bit tedious but very rewarding in the end. Stainless will hold its shine.
 
Thank you. It will be tedious, but i have the time🙂
