Hubcap restore
#2
Mask the hubcap, then using a small paint brush, carefully apply vaseline to the FORD letters and to places where applying tape is difficult. Spray the puppy, then when the paint dries, wipe off the vaseline.
Get two small pieces of 1/4" pine, put one on either side of the dent, then place a C clamp on both pieces of the pine, tighten until dent 'goes away.'
You can polish the scuffs away using Dupont white polishing compound or semichrome. You can use a buffer, but be careful it doesn't 'take off' on its own.
