    Default polishing chrome lips

    anybody know the best way to go about doing the lip and dish on my wheels?products etc as theyll need a fair bit of scrubbing.

    also this might be a stupid question but will i have to take the tyres off the wheels befor i split m??

    thanks

    This lad is from Poland but lives up in Belfast, seen some of his work and it looks sweet, he is not too expensive either, quoted me £100 to polish all four wheels completely (lips and centers)

    clean them down wit a wire wheel or abrasive wheel(assumin you wana mirror finish on the intake mani instead of a dimpled one) them sand them wit 80 an go up through a few dif grades of sand paper till you get to 2000grit an nice smooth finish then polish them till they're shiny
