    Why do you want to restore knock-offs? Original spinners are availabe on e-bay all the time, in fact I bought extra ones. Advanced Plating out of Nashville did a fabulous job.

      Philip, I can't recall who advertised in The Driveline some time back and don't hav emy issues with me now but someone restores the Knock-Off Wheels and I assume restores the Knock-Offs also. Hopefully someone else recalls who. There is someone, however.

        Valeria,
        I presume that buying knock-off spinners off Ebay does not guarantee they are original equipment spinners or that they are properly restored to original condition. There has been more than one instance on Ebay where "what you see is not what you get." Let the hassle begin.
        Best regards,

          paul's chrome plating in evans city pa can restore the spinners. he'll make sure the stamping is as deep as it was pre-plating but you'll have to pay extra for the engraving done prior to plating. mike

              Valeria -

              Phil is talking about spinners for genuine knock-off aluminum wheels used only on '64-'66 Corvettes; I think you're talking about the simulated spinners on C1 stainless wheel covers.
