Before I bought my bus it had been standing for quite a while so there is a scabby patch on each alloy. I cant afford to get them skimmed so are there any tips for cleaning them up?

DIY
get sand paper rub down each wheel
get silver spray or similar colour to van
spray wheels
get laquer give two to three coats
then polish wheels when dry to smooth surface otherwise dirt will easily stick to them
