DIY Wheel Polishing
 

nice great job

damn, i forgot how great those turned out..

mad props to big c, i followed this and mine turned out great a few months back

Glad to hear its working out for other people too. Its a lot of work but the result is worth it.

im glad you made this a sticky, i just aquired some new blades and they are gonna need some polishing. awesome work man,


ps. i like how you left the wheel weights on there while you were striping :-p

did you repaint in between the spokes?

nope.

woah those look real nice :thumbsup:

Yeah this is amazing, where do you learn this stuff from?

I just gathered bits and pieces of information from the web and went from there and tried it myself.

those wheels look good.

clean.....love how you did that in steps....

i sell similar product made by KLEANSTRIP at my work.

it runs about 8 bucks a can....

damn they turned out great

swweeet....I need to do that to my ls wheels. the clear coat is starting to look faded...

now the question is how much will you charge to do those to mine

just did mine....:thumbup:

^^^looks good, how long did that take you?

well this one wheel took me about an hour to do....

^^^^^^^:wave:

Hey man great job, i like the attention to detail. overall how many hours did this take to complete per wheel? you had to put good time and elbow grease to make them look show room ready.

Around 2-3 hours per wheel.

So would you recommend this for wheels that aren't painted, but just beat up from brake dust and wear and tear? Would the procedure still be similar for wheels like I described? My Del Sol fat fives are downright fucked from being so old, so I was gonna try and clean them up as much as possible for a meet in a few months...

/\ looks clean :thumbup:

teh pix are down! :hithead:

Good call. Forgot I cancelled one of my old hosting accounts where those pics were hosted.

Fixed.

Worked realy good, worth the time.. look brand new

I'm gonna do the same for my fat 5's.

could this be done only for polishing a lip and leaving the rest of the paint on the rim? anyone ever done that before?

were did you buy the aircraft coatin remover .....thanks
