Re: Polishing Aluminum Wheels
I see, that makes sense - perhaps I'll start with the 2500. I used 1500 the other night, it worked well - but it was a used piece of sandpaper, so it was probably more like 2500!

Re: Polishing Aluminum Wheels
Marlin,
I had a set of vintage ET wheels gone over by a pro. His method was to start with a Scotch-Brite pad with polishing compound, then go to cloth. Shortens the job and works great. The Scotch-Brite doesn't clog up like sand paper would very quickly so you can keep going with one pad and just add polish. Verne [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
