Polishing wheels
Michael - 19/9/11 at 08:17 PM

Now I am 80% through paiting my RS2000 wheels. I am getting to the point of working out what to polish the shiny bits with.

i had tested mums aluminium pan cleaner on a bit, but want the bright shine.

What should I use as I think I have autosol in the garage for polishing the chrome on the old cars. Plus can i used that on the chrome suspension arms I have?

Thanks.

You should get a good finish if you use a polishing mop on a bench grinder or in a pistol drill? The down side though is that you will need to re-polish them after using the car

A kit like this should do the trick;
