Does no one know how to polish rims?
You know, I never thought that I would post "Do a search", but I get it from people all the time. It amazing how much time it saves if you do a search. I was thinking of polishing my wheels and searched the boards and found a butt-load of info. Just trying to sort it all out was a task in itself. Thomas

Heres a pic of my 86 Z rims.I still have to paint the white parts and put my center caps on. I use the professional equipment to polish my stuff. I got a die grinder, da sander, polishing wheels, and polishing compounds to use. Just work hard on them and the shine will come out with some elbow grease.
(explained short & sweet)
buy good polish and sandpaper
1.take tires off rims
2. jack up rear of car
3.grab your girl (
4.put car in drive
5.accel 2 about 1500rpm(not sure mabye lower)
6.use polish and different grits of sandpaper,(dont burn your hand)
7.bring 2 a mirror shine
(WELL PLEASE EXCUSE MY DUMBASS THE ABOVE IS 4 PONTIAC CROSSLACED RIMS ,NOT Z28'S 5 STARS!!)
USE A DREMEL AND DO WHAT 85 SAID...
