hey guys i hope this in the right section.

well i have a set of hp designs split 5 19`s on my benz and the wheels have a black face and a brushed lip.

the later production line of my wheels have a mirror polished lip but mine are early prduction so i have a brushed lip so what is the process for polishing them?.

i tryed some megs metal polish with a mf aplicator and it cleans em up but they dont get any shinyer and i also tryed the same polish with some 0000 steel wool and that removed some of the brushed finish but not all of it.



help me out guys!:bigups

When you used the metal polish, did it turn the cloth black? If not, the wheel is clear coated. If it`s cleared, then polishing with metal polish won`t really shine it up much because the clear is probably gloss, not shiny. If the cloth turned black, then try Mother`s Billet, the one in the small glass container.
