Oxidation on the face can be cured only by refinishing the wheel.

The bad news is, it'll happen again.. I think it might cost less to search for some of the same OE alloys that are free of oxidation, and scrap/sell the old ones..

2 steps to fix oxidation problem:

1) Sandblast Wheels, removing oxidation2) Paint Wheels with engine enamel

You can check out the pics of my wheels at the link in my sig to see what they look like.
