  • Finished Polishing wheels

    I finished stripping and polishing my wheels. I used this orange nylon thing attached to a drill. I didnt take the wheel balance clips off, so i just went over them with sandpaper and the orange polish thing. The wheel balance clips rust a little so i sanded them with sandpaper and waxed them.

    why not go for the mirror shine? move up the grits to 2000 then hit them with never dull/mothers alum. polish for a perfect chrome-like look.

    or if youre happy... keep them.

        It's like impossible to hit the whole rim with sandpaper. It takes forever. Every little spot needs to be sanded. Curvy rims are a pain.

          Yes, but the finished product is SSOO worth it!
