I have black Z51wheels and I hate to admit it but I curbed my right ones backing out if parking spot :-(

Looking for experienced folks to provide guidance on touching them up.

try you tube - about 1000 of them....depends on your skill level...are you good with a dremel?...most will find it better to get it done for $100 or so..every one of the good chevy dealers has a "guy" the used car dept uses, that comes in and does it....

As Glen said most good Chevy dealers have a person who does it reasonably. I would encourage you to check with your dealer, also if you have a local Vette club or C&C ask around. You can certainly attempt to do it yourself but the people who do this for a living do such a great job it tends to be worth using them.

Wow, that's a first on this forum.

"Google it -or- take it to your dealership"

Hmm!

Thanks for making me dig deeper.

I had read that great thread a while back and got a lot out of it for general techniques and great tips on detailing.

I missed the wheel reference and link away at the very end.

Just reviewed that whole 30 hour process for restoring uncared for wheels Worth saving for future reference but not really what I was looking for.

I have about three 1 inch wide brush marks on the very edges if my rims. Just enough to take a little paint off (I'll post pics tomorrow). I knew I'd have to grind/polish them a little. Was looking for more specifics on how to do that and what to use to touch up black painted wheels after smoothing scuff out.

Thanks.
