Is there a link to the thread you made detailing the process of polishing the wheels? This looks like something I want to do this spring!

Mine looked pretty close to that from just the airplane stripper stuff. I stripped the paint and clearcoat. They looked really shiny when all the paint was off. By the way the airplane stripper they have at advanced auto is awesome. Mine are getting powdercoated black though.

These are mine with ZERO sanding or any polish. This is just spraying two coats of the airplane stripper on them. A little polishing would make them look pretty sweet.
