6 Alloy truck rims (dirty job)

[smurf]

Gosh this was a very dirty job
the rims had done over 1.5 million kms and had only been hand polished
so it took about 1 HR per each rim some a bit longer
Every thing went black even me

Be for photos







Front rim polished, back is not

Wow,amazing results. What was the process?

Re: 6 Alloy truck rims (dirty job)

1st off we took the rim of the truck (easer to work on)
remove tar with degreaser
I used a wool pad on a drill with low speed but with high toque to cut the alloy
then used the rotary buffer with a medium foam pad to remove the wool marks
then onto a soft foam pad to give it the high gloss
