So I have my old Hutch Windstyler that Im working on restoring and Im wondering if anyone has any tips of cleaning/whitening the Mag wheels that came on it?
These are the wheels I have:

put them in bleach for a day or two.
remove all the hardware because bleach can damage aluminium parts when putting it too long in the bleach!
I did it with my skyway tuff wheels and worked nice, not perfect but...all depends on how yellowed the wheels are.
Thanks, but they must be pretty bad, or Im just too picky cause Ive been soaking them in bleach water for the past 3 days and they have not seemed to have gotten any whiter then before I did so.
mmmm then you have a problem.
but i supose there is no magical cure to get them back in new condition.
my white tuffs were better after 2 days in bleach water, but still not as white like new.
did you try the old school BMX forums?
Yeah I guess your probaly right, its not like they are YELLOW, just not super bright white. Was thinking of testing a small spot with some super fine wet sand paper to see if that removes the top layer at all. I have not tried any other forums, just happen to spend a lot time on this site so I figured Id give it a try. Thanks for all your help!
