use a drill, works so much faster to get the crap off.

To make it looks smooth as hell, use ultra fine steel wool. I don't know much about it, Mike knows more, maybe he'll chime in.

Anyways good work!

thats definetely Simpsons. Make more sense to do it now so when its spring time they'll look nice and clean, he also has a spare set of OEM rims, those aren't his only ones.

Do you need to spray them with a sealer to prevent corrosion?
