Re: Pianted And Polished Rims!

Hopefully it's just the picture quality, but I can't really tell if there is an improvement. The raised areas look pitted. Is that the paint or is it pitted? The recessed areas between the spokes looks to be flat grey. Is that the goal?

These rims looked like complete garbage before this, the pitting that you see is just water. And I could not get that flat grayish off for my life.
