Laramie chrome wheel covers cleaning

[ctdodge]

I have a 17 Laramie 1500 with the plastic chrome wheel covers. After a winter of neglect I finally washed it today. The truck looks good but the wheels look like crap. There are a lot of marks on them that won't wash off. Is there a good cleaner that will restore them to their former glory? Or will I have to think about new covers?

Be prepared for the paint them black replies. Lol. I ended up buying chrome wheels to replace mine, there's only so much you can do for the plastic chrome.

Hahaha @2012RAM1500RT so true. Plastic scratches easy so you are left with sand and paint them, or replace them with a chrome wheel.

Maybe try some Scratch filler? No idea if that will work - total guess.
