Anyone have a good place? Wheel has some corrosion under the current coating, would like to blast it and polish it or something.

I just went on You Tube and although there aren't any videos on repairing motorcycle magnesium rims there are a few on car rims which should apply...

They did a few different things-some blasted them and others sanded them.....if it were me, I'd blast them and powder coat them

I do regularly wish I grew up in the late 60’-70’ era of drag racing

The wheels will need to be either, glass blasted, or vapor blasted to stripped
