Recondition old wheels?

[Motown 454]

If its a chrome wheel like a Cragar SS use Brillo pad on them it shines them really well. I would never use it on a new or good chrome wheel but they need to be redone anyway . I used to do mine all the time because they were all beat up . It worked for me for three years, they looked very presentable. Sorry didn't see the painting part !!!
