I hate polishing too.
I'm fine with stripping and masking. Dad again deserves all of the credit for the shine/polishing. The above example doesn't show curb rash, but many of our wheels had it. He sands it out first with an air grinder and soft grinding pads. Then multiple steps of hand sand paper. finally fine papser (1000K+) and then buffing wheels, buffing compounds, and more buffing. brant |
