will polish out
or as nick says send it to CC
and get them done silver anno rather than non original polished finnish

So forgive me if i'm being a little thick here :angel:
Are you saying that the rim has not de-anodised properly ????
In slightly better light today. Obviously they require better polishing but i did these by hand rather than any sort of polishing tool.
Glynnyboy:
I would say what neil has for the future but all the anno hasn't gone yet. Trying to polish it off you can end up peeing in the wind as anno is meant to last. They would be back in the bag under a watchfull eye. Rub through the bag in the spots you have missed. It will come good.
The same happened to me with some araya aero's and they worked out fine. :daumenhoch:

Or take them outside, put some decent rubber gloves on and apply the oven pride direct to the areas that need more attention, rubbing in with the gloves - I use the gloves method rather than the bag - feel like i'm in more control that way :)
