Message: [QUOTE="mandkole, post: 1139729, member: 4630"] Well, Im beginning to wuss out. It took 3 hours to run the 800 over one wheel. You can get most of the clear off with the stripper, but it leaves little spots that just dont want to come off and have to be sanded off. If I go for just polish/clear, my plan is to call a few wheel refurb shops to see if they dip the wheels in stripper. If they are powdered, a little media will take care of them. Once everything is sanded, it polishes fairly easy with a power wheel or buffer to get enough pressure to finish working the metal. I can do the top surfaces but the small wool pad wont get into the holes. Im thinking that a big die grinder and attachments to do it right. However, if you miss one of those little spots of clear it shows up as a dark spot, you have to stop, re-sand and start over. A few more pics-- the second one is of the sanded wheel that's been polished a little. [/QUOTE]
