Has anyone every done this on there rims?? Like on steelies and such.

just go anf get heaps of wet and dry sand paper.

500 - 2000 and do the lip in each grade untill u get to the finest and THEN some decent metal polish and shine the lip up.

i brought my 13+ year old enkeis to life with this method. still shine today.

all they need is regular polish and onces they r done onces theyll be right.

id like to se a steelie lipped lol.

I saw a sheet metal guy polish some stainless pipe up. He had a buffer pad on the end of the drill. He has some special greases (in different grades) that he applied to the pipe and gradually brought the pipe to a mirror finish. He didn't use sandpaper at all. I'm not sure where you can get this grease from though...ask around at sheet metal places.
