Hey guys..
Can this be done to a normal alloy?
DIY'd at home
OR
Or do you have to use one of those buffer like things that spin at a high RPM?
Thanks !

i figured it would, but if I pick up this set of rims, i want to spray them black and do a polished lip.
I'll see how i go
Any other suggestions?

By some Autosol (metal polisher) from Repco, Autobarn etc...
Then buy yourself a small buffer bit for a cordless drill & your away.

use paint stripper to remove clear coat, then wet sand with 400,800,1000,1500, and 2000. to get it to look like chrome sand up to 2500
then give it a polish with mag polish (mother mag polish can be brought at autobarn).
