Default What to do?

Guys, I'm in a quandry! I have a customers rim (black) that was damaged by some stained **** in somewhat white. I got it off with something stronger than alcohol, but I want to touch up the rim without messing it up thus having to strip and start over. Is there a polish that I can use to buff it shiny again?
I don't know about the owner, but I can live with that especially if it's for free.
I still have to buy paint to redo his centercap. No more freebies...

i personally have not done it but if the finish is powder and was done right it should be able to be buffed with superfine cut compound just like regular paint then wax and it should be ok.

Check where they sell auto paint. For blemishes in liquid I wet sand 2000 to clean, buff with a rubbing compound and finish off with a hand glaze.
