polishing TC wheels

well i have spray painted my wheels 3 times now and it time for a change. They were first gloss black, then i went to a bronze rustolium, and then to flat black. Took me 2 days and 6 cans of air craft stripper to take all the spray paint off and the stock clear coated silver. i am going to sand them done and lightly polish them. Trying to get a shinny "brushed" look out of them. Would post pics but dont know how haha
