    I feel this write up is too long and the list of stuff to use needs to be updated. Here are my results using own method. Yes, I also polished the centers. If anyone is interested I can tell you what to buy for the same results.

    This is a great write up. I use a different method but I had a much more intensive process as a whole. Had to fix some rash first and had them professionally stripped. After everything hit them with a polishing wheel on my rotary polisher and Tripoli polishing compound. Patience pays off when doing it this way

    Some might find this video by EuroGarage on polishing wheels helpful, his were in really rough shape. I plan on copying his idea for a lathe/jig to spin the wheels.

The lips are in a worse condition than my last wheels and im wondering if basic sanding will get rid of the issues. I used 5 layers of paint stripper so im pretty sure its just bare meal now.

    What will i need to do to get ride of th curb rash and other problems.? Any help is appreciated.
    I used BOSH orbital sander with 100 grit sandpaper to get rid of rust dots.

    Bookmarked--thank you for the write up! Just picked up a set of wheels with polished lips, so I will absolutely refer to this when the time comes to maintain them.
