its easy. go to your local car part store (autozone, pepboys, etc) and buy some aircraft paint remover. spray some on the rims and let it dissolve the paint. after it dries scrape off the left over residue, being careful not to scrape the rim surface. then use some kind of polish/metal shiner product. then thats it u got new shiny blades
