Re: Wanting to know how/aluminum rim buffing

You can always step the sandpaper down, start with a 600 grit, go to 1500 grit, and then finish with 2500 grit. Always use wet and dry sand paper and use WD-40 as the lubricant for the paper to keep the pores of it clean. Follow the sanding up with a small buffing wheel in a drill using a polishing stick. Harbor Freight or Sears have these available. Final polish with Mothers or Mequiars.
