1 Answers
Here are the steps to deal with a scratched wheel hub: 1. Use paint thinner to clean the area around the scratch and remove dirt. For deeper scratches, use a toothpick to clean the affected area thoroughly; 2. Apply adhesive tape around the scratched area; 3. Use a fine-tipped brush to apply touch-up paint; 4. After the touch-up paint has completely dried, use waterproof paper soaked in soapy water to smooth the surface; 5. Finally, polish with a compound to restore shine and apply wax. The wheel hub is the rotating part of the wheel that connects the tire's inner rim to the wheel core via spokes, also known as the rim, steel rim, or wheel. Types of wheel hubs include painted wheel hubs and chrome-plated wheel hubs.
