Nice way to polish

Why not just use a polishing head on a cheap drill? ie. spin the polishing compound not the wheel.

Now that's a great idea! Many thanks for uploading this. One thing: do you use anything to protect the surface i.e. clear coat, metal varnish, etc..? I mean it will got with time, right? I've got a '94 Magna and was either considering going mate black of posilh

I think some have used clear coat after polishing, but I didn't.
I find that after getting the pits out, that just keeping them clean by polishing them lightly with Mother's metal polish using a microfiber cloth works. Nothing like the work shown in the video. I'm talking about a few minutes on each wheel with the bike on a lift, a few times each summer.
The climate is dry here, so we don't get the pitting that those living on the coast, or eastern US see.

the only budget way to make wheel spin - rise whole car start engine and leave it on gear... Your idea is just much better! thank you man!

thats awesome...do you think theres a method where you dont have to remove the tire?
Maybe the bike on a stand while rotating the tire?

Yeah, I guess you could put it on a stand and do something similar, but it would be hard to get the whole wheel. And, unless you had a stand that would get the wheels chest high, you'd be sitting on the floor to do the work.
