ok so far i stripped the paint off and hit with 100 grit with a palm sander then i went back over with 220 300 500 600 800 grit and this is what i got (:camera: see pics) then i tried a polishing wheel on a drill and it didn't crap so any suggestions on what to do now?? :thinking:

did u use polish?

not actually a polishing wheel, but a can of "mothers mag/aluminum wheel polish'

thats what brings the shiny.

happy rubbing.
