Great video, did this on some work wheels I got for cheap back in the days. It was easier to polish then this since the face was flat and didn't have many spokes. Only down side to this is, if you live any where that rains alot, your gonna have to re ppolish offten. Pretty much, your polishing the wheels atleast twice a week especially if you like to keep your car clean. If your car have alot of break dust it's even worse and when it's not polish , it looks like crap. If you can afford it, powder coating silver or chrome will be better, less work keeping it shiny and cleaned.

The wheels turned out great, I'm sure a lot more people are gonna be cruising around on much nicer wheels because of this video. Couple things that made my project easier was i used a cordless drill, I found 2 and 3 inch buffing pads. There's wool and different foam pads I used and lastly I went with a grittier polish called Autosol. It comes in a tube, when polishing porous metals it turns any buffing pad black and the surface your working on like a mirror, sound good? Give it a try...👍🤠✌️

If your car have alot of break dust it's even worse and when it's not polish , it looks like crap. If you can afford it, powder coating silver or chrome will be better, less work keeping it shiny and cleaned.
Looks super clean, great job! I refinished am EM1 wheel which was pretty bad with very good results using a different method. I didn't sand and polish, I used aircraft paint remover and then re-cleared the wheel. Really like the DA content, keep it up!

what stripper did you use? i need to strip my clear on some G37 sport wheels and everything i've read says all the stripper formulas were changed a few years ago, and that the new formulas are a lot weaker. did you have to do multiple passes per wheel using the stripper?
fantastic job bro, just what I was looking for, thank you!!

The wheels turned out great, I'm sure a lot more people are gonna be cruising around on much nicer wheels because of this video. Couple things that made my project easier was i used a cordless drill, I found 2 and 3 inch buffing pads. There's wool and different foam pads I used and lastly I went with a grittier polish called Autosol. It comes in a tube, when polishing porous metals it turns any buffing pad black and the surface your working on like a mirror, sound good? Give it a try...👍🤠✌️

What kind of wheels are they?
The one thing I see is a throw those hammer on weights away and use stick on weights inside the rim. When the guy at the tire shop installs hammered weights it cracks the clear-coat. Not to mention it looks terrible. I am myself balance all aluminum wheels with stick on weights on the inside in one spot only. static balance is the best way to go.
What grit sand paper did you start with wasn’t mentioned or I missed it.

After polish, you have to degrease the rim and then spray the clear coat

No not the case really. Aluminum starts oxidizing as soon as you finish cleaning/polishing it. Even if kept dry and clean, they will continue to tarnish/fade over time. Clear coat would solve the issue though. I had a $3000 set of polished True Forged wheels (no clear) on my Cobra and shit, they were a pain in the ass to keep shiny af.
