Anyone complely stip and polish their TA wheels?

Here's a pic of my TA rim. Black 16in. I just had an idea, but wondered if anyone has attempted it, and if so what it would look like.

Has anyone stipped the black paint and just polished the entire rim.....crosslaces and all? Pics?

It would probably be pretty hard to polish the crosslaces, unless you just wanted to polish the surface that faces you.
