Wheel Rust

[vindicated]

Since moving to Illinois, my Jeep has been eaten alive and the wheels are beginning to show signs of surface rust. What can be done about this?

As a side note, I am also combating rust on my front bumper, and have CLR'd and scrubbed it and repainted it several times over but it keeps just rusting deeper. HELP!

Put another "I love Obama" sticker over the rust.

0000 fine steel wool takes it right off of chrome.

Or a gun free zone sticker.

The only sticker I have about that retard says "Does this ass make my Jeep look big" and it's a picture of him.

There is 0 chrome on my jeep.

Or a gun free zone sticker.

Nothing about my life is or ever will be gun free! Ever!

Steel wool should still work, just don't scrub the paint off.

Thanks! How do I keep it from coming back? I get that I can touch up the bumper and that sucks, but on the aluminum wheels, not sure how to paint them. I guess get the paint from the dealer?

Clear coat or just wax them like you would your car. Puts a layer of protection on it.

Nice! I will try it!
