The weather finally got nice enough to wash my truck. Unfortunately I discovered that the rear brake drums are rusting so bad that the rust has caked onto the finish of my rims. It is not the rim itself rusting because it is only on the rear rims and I can scrape it off with my fingernail.
I have attached a picture that shows where I scraped some of the rust off with my finger nail. How would you guys go about getting the rust off these rims without damaging the wheel finish?
I have already attempted to use Deep Wheel Cleaner twice and that didn't do much to the rust. I tried a clay bar and all that does is turn the clay orange.
