Cheers Shane, that or the brain died off a long time ago allowing me to do this for hours on end :)

So after machine sanding the cast metal back to within an inch of its linfe with a 60 grit head I took it up to 120 > 240 > 400 > 600 > 800 > 1200 > 1500 and then finally fingerprintless gave it a polish with a mix of compound and peek...

Cast Wheels = Never Again (Well who knows if I get bored :))

Thanks Kev, I got a different cutting agent last week so I'm redoing them as we speak, should have a better finish in the end.
