Re: My first attempt at wheel restoration: Cragar G/T

Those look good. I restored a set of G/Ts for my Camaro a couple of years ago. The aluminum is a bear to polish - it's just rock hard. I wet sanded in three stages - started with 320 and went to 400 and then 600. Then hand polished. The aluminum on the G/Ts is so hard that I'd recommend skipping grades finer than 600. Just my opinion- good luck.
