cleaning up a rim

[RDF]

Just got a used rim in the mail today....looks good....no visible rust, but it's scratched up pretty good.  How can I go about getting it to look close to new?  What type of paint can I use that won't chip/frey?

Without seeing it... Can this possibly be sanded smooth? If not, maybe some type of media blasting will do the trick?  Eastwood sells the Rally wheel paint, if that is what you have.

Sorry Mike....I should know better than that.....lemme take a few pics of it and resize them and get them up in a few.....you are right though, it is a rallye rim for a 73 cuda.

Here's some pics of it.  Not a bad rim IMO for $66.00 ($44.00 + $20.00 s/h):

It could probabbly be sanded off, but a quick bead blasting would be the best bet at a lasting finish.  If you don't have access to one, lots of machine shops and body shops would probably do it cheap, and even headstone places sometimes will help out.
