    this is a 2 part question.
    1. A buddy asked me to detail his shovel head HD. It needs some light paint correction. Plus it has wire spoke rims like on a bicycle.
    How much should I charge?

    2. what is the best way to clean the rims?
    Thank you

    For the spokes (although I`ve never done a MC) I was told to cut a polishing MF towel into long strips and you wrap it once around the spoke so that when you`re holding each end of the MF strip and pull on each end, back and forth, that section of spoke is polished.

    Wraped kinda like this:

    Hope this makes sense.
