View Full Version : Mirror polishing?
How is this done? Im looking to get a set of rs turbo alloys i have done but was just wondering how it was done, and if it could be done to any type of alloy, and what would i be expecting to pay per wheel?

Strip the paint. Sand the metal with fine wet & dry to prepare the surface & remove fine scratching.
Then use a polishing mop with polishing soap & buff.
If doing 4 wheels be prepared for a lot of work. You will atleast need to spend out on polishing heads & mops etc. failing that get them done professionally. There is a place in Yate that does them rather cheap. The guy almost doesnt carge enough.
However I have no idea who he is. Luke Langton told me about him.
Heres a guide i made for how i did mine :thumb:
