My iForged lips are starting to get hazy from all the hairline scratches on them. Has anyone ever used buffing wheels attached to a drill with jewlers rouge to buff them to a shine? I currently have been using wenol applied with a terry cloth towel, but it's a big chore to get them really sparkline. If I can attach a buffing wheel and just whiz away on the lips it would make it 100X easier.

This is what I had in mind.

The iForged rims do not have a protective clear coat applied to the lips?

 

no clearcoat =\

 

Do a search for the new Mothers Polishing Ball, it is exactly what you need.....

 

I have this exact kit. You need a higher RPM drill to do it right. Not just a run of the mill one. I won't kid you...it's not even close to a whiz to do. It takes as long as the wenol. I can't say that I would buy it again.

BTW, that hoppy kit has too small buffing wheels, one is only 7/8 of an inch looks like

 

Hmm...i just have a 14.4 volt drill...might not have enough power to do the job on all 4 wheels I guess.

Mothers Polishing Ball? I'll google it.

What about the Flitz polishing ball? I've seen infomercials on it and looks similar to the mothers polishing ball.

 

I am sure it will be fine to use also....

The Mothers ball is at OReily auto parts here in town in case you don't want to order anything.....

 

Looks like The Ball would be hard to use on just the lip. Might get against the painted part of the wheel.
