    Does anyone in her Excel at it? I have been working on these wheels for weeks only for them to come out sub par every time...I'm sick of it and am crying for help. I dont want to sand any more material off trying new things. If you are amazing at polishing or know someone, let me know. I want as mirror as possible and have accompolished it, but had lines:( help me out family

        I have been using Tripoli and a yellow keystone pad and haven't gotten to the blue rouge I have for finishing since I always see lines or swirls:( I went up to 1200 on a palm sander because past 800 it is considered polishing

          I use a guy named Mike in Kenosha, he does amazing work. Shoot me a PM and i'll give you his number. It cost me $100 to have an m20 valve cover mirror polished.
