Bubbly Wheels

My 3 and a half year old 156 Veloce wheels (telephone dial type) are
starting to show signs of bubbling in places, no doubt due to not
cleaning them properly (hangs head in shame). Is it worth getting them
stripped and refurbished, or will this just speed up the deterioration?

Properly done it should protect them well.  You need to find someone to do
it well though....

..failing that, they're *relatively* cheap at about 100UKP each!
