RE: curb rash..PISSED
On my original truck rims (aluminum)
I would just quickly hit it with the dremel (sanding drum)
Go over it a few times by hand with ever finer sandpaper.
Then clearcoat ( I used a small paint brush).
Mind you I didn't care what they looked like all that much, but as long as I was careful you couldn't tell unless looking very carefully. Then next weekend I would go scrape it up an more boulders[:@]
