i got bored..and decided to polish my wheels. ~~update, finished another one~~
it's a long process, but it's rewarding. i've only done one spoke tho. here's the pics:

looks nice fuz
keep at it! |
I love how fuzzy just does it at home..... lookin good G, I told you to this like a year ago, remember, you lazy bastard
|
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! |
those will look hot when they're done. paint them gunmetal between the spokes.
|
so far so good... you have alot more patience than i do, ill tell you that much... im sure the finished product will make it all worth while though
|
It already looks brand new!
Can't wait until you finish the entire thing! |
Wow that looks hot, post pics as soon as you're done :)
|
noo fine grit sandpaper then a dremel tool with polishing wheels. really fast. try to get big wheel. big tub of aluminum/mag polish

lookin nice fuzz!
|
whats the point in doing them now. its gonna get dirty again with the salt and all. your shoulda waited until before spring. unless you are not driving the teg for now
btw is that simpsons that you are watching i can see it in the reflection of the rim :yeah: |
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.
|
I was expecting to see a set of rims from Poland.
|
Looks really good Fuzzy!
|

|
Do you need to spray them with a sealer to prevent corrosion?
|
Do you ever watch anything other than the Simpson's?
|
