I'd like to polish these to a mirrorlike finish.
How much time does it take per wheel to do it right and what should I pay to send them out? What is the best process? fine grit wet paper all the way down to #0000 steel wool and then Mother's polish? Thanks. KT Attached image(s)

That looks sweet Curt, that satin finish is nice! Car looks spiffy too! Need to find some center caps of some sort for mine though
