Default How to: polish wheels yourself?

What are the methods you guys use to polish ur lips (if you do oit urself)

Ive been reading that guys sand them down or use polishers and just take their time and do it...

whats the best way to obtain that mirror like finish?

Wow, nice bump.

When you say "polish", do you mean polishing wheels that are already pristine, or polishing rims that have been curbed? There are different methods for restoring each.

.. or are you talking about sanding the wheel down from a painted/powdercoated state down to the metal and polishing that?
