Thanks for digging out this old thread Larry.
As I stated earlier I have cleared my centers after they were blasted and the clear is still intact today. They have grayed from heat but not corroded. I clean the centers with WD 40 and the brake dust comes right off and the clear is still glossy.
The rims require the most effort on the inner sides as I don't pull them every month. The brake dust kills them after a season and requires med grade steel wool, followed by fine and polish to get them back. The fronts are done much more frequently because it's so easy on the car. Never wax them because it won't do much and heat will eat the wax. Polish with Mothers first followed by Mr. Buffer. Much faster with Powerball.
They stay very nice and only get cloudy and gritty when there's a long wet or humid spell.
