any metal can be polished if you have the patience. While not necessarily my taste, I applaud your originality. How about throwing a clear coat on after polishing to prevent rusting?

Polished lips + Clear coat = bling bling steelies!

but he has the right idea, polish it the spray some clear almost immediately. just watch out if you ever curb or rock hits your wheel and put more clear on or it will get surface rust
