Animalman294 Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 I took some aluminum wheels off my old truck and used a eight inch grinder with a polishing wheel on it and shined my wheels to a mirror finish once. Now I would like to strip the paint off my case and do the same thing, but there are so many small crevices that this large wheel wont get in there. What can I use to shine the aluminum parts on my shee up like that? Thanks for the info........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hittintrees srh Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 a dremel die grinder with a polishing top works pretty well-take a long time though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallrat Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 3M roloc discs. Get a 2" arbor and then tons of 2" plus a few 3" green and red discs. Snap those onto a die grinder and have fun. After that do the tight spots w/ a dremel and put the whole thing on the buffer. I'm doing my rear hubs right now which sucks cuz they're steel and take WAY longer!

Wallrat Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 I use this: Die Grinder With this (they sell the scotch-brite discs and roloc attachment seperately: Accessory kit Followed with this: buffer You'll still need some small fine grinding stones to reach into the tight corners.
