So I have a set of old CJ5 wheels for my Willys, and instead of painting them, I think I'd like to leave them "all natural" looking, at least for now (I could always sand and spray them later).
They all have a bit of surface rust here and there, but what I'm concerned about is the area where the bead sits. What should I do to clean this up? Should I sand it down to metal and spray some primer? or just sand it down to metal and leave it? Maybe I don't need to do anything, just clean it off with a rough sponge and water?
The wheels are steel, by the way. I'll take a photo of one of them so you can see what condition they are in.
