4 ot or AKA 000 steel wool would help...we have this stuff at work we call acid to clean aluminum rims..takes rust and averything off to make them look brand new but im not sure actually what it is..someone on here might...just be careful and dont let it sit on the rim for more than 30 seconds or it will turn white!
