Wheels ...
« on: 06 February 2010, 13:34 »
I have just managed to get myself a set of 17" bk alloys , but they need a bit of a tidy up . The laquer has lifted round the edges of three of them so i was wondering how hard it is to re polish them .
Is this something i can do myself , or would i be better off getting a professional to do it .
If i was going to do it , what products etc , and tools would be the best ?

You could do it yourself to save some dosh, cant remember how you go about doing this though.  Hard word depending on the damage.

I did mine nearly a year ago and didn't use lacquer and there fine (but need proper sealer on them every 6 weeks)
