Got a lil bored today so I stripped and started polishing my factoy wheels that were laying in my garage.


After stripping


After wet sanding with 220-400-800-1000 grit papers to get rid of all the little ribs in the alum.


then used med com pound polish

Have not decided paint or polish cutouts yet.
