Wheel Polishing Info

I think i have everything figured out on HOW to polish my wheels, but i need to know with WHAT... I know i can get 6" and the like buffing wheels from Eastwood.. Are there any places where i can get buffing wheels that will work on a dremel for polishing aluminum?

I'm sure with buffing wheels that small i will have to use more than one per wheel because they will wear out quickly, but i dont want to buy a bench grinder just to do my wheels.. The highest RPM drill my family has goes up to 1400rpm, so im guessing thats out....

Any ideas where i could purchase wheels that would work for me?

Just get an air dyegrinder. You can get some polishing wheels and clay polish for it.


Watch Trucks tomarrow they just did an episode on polishing wheels.
