Any DIY writeups on repairing curb rash? Silver Z06 Speedlines.

My Z06 rims (stock, gray/silver finish) incurred a lot of curb rash from a previous owner, and I am wondering if anyone knows how to, of a website that shows how to refinish these wheels. I seem to remember seeing a technique for filling in the curb rash with something akin to bondo, sanding down into shape, and then painting with the proper products. But I can't find it anymore.

If anyone has some advice, I'm all ears. Car will be laid up for the winter and I have the time to do this, if I could just find the instructions and proper products and paints.

Thanks!

Awesome, thanks! That's the same page I had found last year but forgot where it was. I was hoping somebody would link to it. I'll do this over the winter when the Vette is laid up for 6 months; then I can take the wheels off and not have to worry about overspraying on the car.
