Yea ! Well you can do that if you like doing them just about every 3 car washes! Lot of work ! And after using WD40 paint won’t stick if the weeks had say painted spokes I learned the hard way and now you ‼️
This way works but I've been using wet sandpaper from 240 to 1400 grits and wow perfect way better than scotch brite imo it takes along time both ways i restored dirtbike rims still working on the back rim right now
Iron remover on aluminum? Typically rust doesn’t build on aluminum. Aluminum will oxidize but you should use a more aluminum based product such as aluminum brighter followed by polishing for an even better result!
polishing aluminium is the stupidest thing we can do, easily get scratch even with the softest towel we can find, best way is paint/anodized/any coating
Nah mate I'm on a budget too I used some of the drill bit style rounded pads and wrapped one on a microfibre cloth and taped it on to use as an applicator pad and finished afterwards with wooden drill bit pads and it looked about the same finish quality as this videos just have to clean the pads heaps during the process
I'm very very new to polishing and thought I atleast did well to get the thing shiny and looking real nice like a mirror I've never done it before and still don't know how to properly as I'm still learning
This was pretty old as of now. The aluminum had a machined surface will small ridges that made it harder to polish. Hence why the center cal looks better.
You should do a complete video on how it’s done

Really cool wheels, great work on the refinishing.
Thank you! Cheers!
Check out summer shine., but yeah Terry cloth towels works better for your purpose
How long did the polish job last? Did you Clear coat?? Good video 👍
I actually ended up sanding down the faces up to 3000 grit and Re polished. No clear coat and they are still fairly shiny till this day.
@@Bang4BuckRacing Great 👍 Thanks!!

Good to know about microfibre! Thanks!
What is wd-40 not good for
Anal lube
Salate dressing
Much needed advice. Thanks brother!!! 🤙
Theres abrasive in the aluminum polish so thats why you can leave scratches if you don’t polish it evenly
WD-40 great for cleaning chrome and stainless too with 0000 steel wool
What power tools did you use please? A did grinder and impact?
Just a Milwaukee impact

Aluminum doesn’t rust it corrodes and it forms aluminum oxide to protect the metal under the outer layer. Your process is how I’ve always done it
Never dull will make your life a lot easier
Yes dude that shit is the best!
Did you just say you can scratch it with a microfiber rag at the end? If so you are the first person to ever say that
you never had aluminium in your life before? it's easily get scratched
Wd40 was originally designed to clean aluminum 😁 cool right? I was amazed at how well it worked too!
Yeah I was very surprised!
@@Bang4BuckRacingcan you show us a tutorial on a step by step video please 🙏
The brand is, “Ricen”?

My aluminum wheels were so bade I'm having to sand them down by hand first lol
SUMMERSHINE Jr 👍🏼
🤣 idk about that
Your audio got cut off
sadly, this setup will cost me more than the aluminium that I want to polish

You did a good job but your aluminum is cloudy. A cut and buff with a buff pad and rouge will blind you.
