That second picture looks better. So how much are you gonna want for these wheels when you're done?

Looks like you need to hit it with smoe more white rouge, but thats just me...

Here is another site on polishing that does a better job of explaining the process and a better process over all, imo. Also stay away from the blue coral polish (or any others) that have amonia in it which makes the aluminum turn whiteish.

Site is kinda fucked up so you prob gota copy the words and paste in word so its easier to read...
