So i get my car back after getting some seals replaced, I look at the passenger side and i see a shiz load of water marks around the rear wheel well. So i dont think much of it.....till i have to wash my car durin the weekend. Motha suckas dont come off!!! >> I dont know what happened, I know the mechanic used chemicals to wash my engine but not sure if the excess was somehow sprayed on my wheel well. And i cant have him pay for it cuz it was all done under the table, no proof of anything. After he gets >> .....what should i do to fix this problem >> I tried waxing, buffed tha hell outta it. the things wont go away. If u guys tried anything or had the same problem corrected, please let me know >> Thanx Guys!!

i actually had a similar problem once.
With my last celica, i has just sent it in to get painted, and they seriously fuc*** up my rims with something. I dont know what the hell it was , but it sure as hell did'nt want to come off. I tried everthing. I even tried scratching it off gently , but no progress.

Then i went to PepBoys and bought some "Chrome Polishing" stuff. I forgot the exact name of it, but it did the job. I worked on one wheel at a time. My arm was killing me at the end after so much scrubing, but my rims looked like new.

Well I did get the stuff off my rims, i swear my arms are 10x stronger after that scrubbin i had to do. But my paint still wont improve >>

try askin him what he used. it might give u a better idea to how to get it off. One time i was washing my moms suburban, and somehow my hand left a huge imprint on the car, i'll never know wat it was but it hasnt come off yet, and its been 2-3 years >>

I was planning on a paint job......sooner or later, but i guess later just came a round the corner.
