Hi all im struggling at the moment everything on the car is nearly done hid conversion done, new rocker cover and various engine parts redone front bumper on its way then paint bumper and rub strips all done ready for santa pod!!!

The only problem im having is my wheels!! whats the best way to make them shiny lol to get through the lacquer so they really stand out.

Pic below of alloys

How do you mean "to get through the lacquer so they really stand out."?

Sorry if Im being a dumb !Removed! :blink:

well they are lacquered and have seen some that you can see your face in them and they are just polished up with autosol just having trouble getting through they lacquer and I don't want to ruin them

you mean polished? the alloy if its polished shouldnt have any laquer on them

they look like they have on them fella

they look like they have on them fella

Im confused lol...dont take much though haha

You got a close up pic?

might of been refurbed at some point?

yeah one side looks like it has been lol but the others are the same ill just keep polishing them up and see what happens its like it has a think lacquer on it dont have close up pick to hand fella

What you polishing them with dude?

im using Autosol mate

I dont think Autosol is good an laquer mate, if they are laquered dude, treat them as a painted surface, like you would your bonnet..

try a polish attachment that you can attach to a drill

like these
