Can You Buff Out "gutter Rash"

[stealth01]

One of my rims has a bit of "gutter rash" on the lip, its not deep(sorry no pics atm) and i was wondering if anyone could tell me if its possible to get gutter rash buffed out.

Ive been told that it depends on the type of rim(ie materials and if its been coated with anything)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

answer is yes and no...depends on what material ur lip is made off. Mine is an anodised lip and I've managed to buff/sand down the gutter rash on it with wet and dry sandpaper...doesn't completely remove it but it does take out the roughness and creates a smoother surface once again. If I tried harder could probably make it disappear completely. Post of pic of the damage.
