Peter thats a good thing to know. I have 4 chrome W140 wheels I'm going to
use for snows. Chrome face is extremely nice but there is some pitting on
the inside. These would make an excellent test case.

Subject: [MBZ] Powder Coat Wheels
I had 4 very crappy looking wheels, they had been chrome plated by
P.O.. They peeled and were ugly. I replaced them.
Gave to old ones to a fellow at work. He abrasive blasted off the
chrome, than polished them a bit. He painted them with "Eastwoods"
powder coating kit, requires baking at about 400°.
They look better than my new wheels!
