should i do this to all the of wheels, so there equally shiny?

 

Depends on whether you want them all equally shiny.

 

I did that to my factory wheels, and I will haveto say they will look nice for awhile, but man they are a pain to keep shinny. once you get them were you want them clearcoat them

 

ok..this isnt going to be fun, ill update w/ pics when i start...

 

well i got a powerball and some other polishes...still nothing...so im going to say **** it and try sanding them...i used some 1500 but it left marks so where should i begin with??

 

hmm it left marks? Try wetsanding it.

 

i was wetsanding thats the thing...

 

have you tried polishing compounds? some tripoli followed by white rogue should have em looking good as new..

 

i have not...where could i get this, is it expensive??

 

I'm really surprised nobody recommended that.. that's normally how you go about polishing rims... do some searches on polishing rims I know there are a few good thread floating around about it.. compounds arn't that expensive.. here is a link to some bars from summit.. http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku or you could go cheaper and just buy these three http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

you probably only really need the tripoli and the white rogue.. you will also need a polishing attachment or two for a drill, shouldn't cost ya too much more. Also I will give you a 100% guarantee that if you compound those rims you will be able to remove those spots and make them shine like new chrome.

 

so i get those 2 bars and some attachments, what do i do with the bars haha? like take some and apply it on the wheel or attachment? this will be the last product i try before i go and paint them

that should work.. there probably isn't enough compound there to do all the wheels though, it's probably enough to do one or two. Basically you guessed right, apply compound to the wheel, then go at it. It's kind of like sanding in the way you start with one and finish with the other, like switching to different grit sand paper.

 

Back from the dead.

you never updated, where you ever able to get these spots out?

 

polished aluminum does not like water

 

nope....kinda gave up and bought new wheels, there just sitting in my garage right now, im sure if i sanded em down or like powder coated them they'd be fine but there only 15's so they were small anyways
