yeah i've been looking at the bentley rims along with some porsche ones too. if only i could win the lotto, not being greedy but just a million would do me fine!! sayin that i'd prob buy the whole porsche then!!!

if only...

cheaper option i would do is get a polishing kit, loads of sandpaper and some elbow grease
and get them golf rims shiny!

would look pimp

yeah i agree!! well i bought these rims bout a month ago but noticed the paint coming away on the bolt holes. so i nitromorsed them ready for a refurb. while i was getting them ready i did do a quick polish on 1 n as you say, it looked wicked!! any tips on polishing alloys? i.e what to use? n will the alloy tarnish over time, do they need a clear lacquer or do ya just leave em polished. the polished wheel looked so nice that i'm not happy with the refurb i done n gonna strip the wheel down again!!

go through 400-1500 grit paper depending on how damaged the wheels are

polishing kit off ebay, you get the polishing bar and some mops etc

then some alu-magic polish for more shine and protection

cheers matey. lookin on ebay now. do ya know what type of store will stock the stuff localy, i hate waiting for ebay stuff to arrive. i'd rather go n get it in person!!

no idea tbh.

ebay is youre best bet for a polishing kit

and frost.co.uk for some alu magic polish

and tape youre thumbs!

i reckon you'll need to laqcuer em. they will look ace for a couple of weeks maybe, but i'm pretty sure they will dull off after a while. think its cos they are a cast alloy, its a little different to polishin up a sheet of alloy. but hey, i might be wrong (am most of the time!!) no harm in tryin, and seein what happens. let us know what you do

well i've just been out n got more nitromors to strip the paint off. gonna give polishing them a go n see what happens. anyone know if a lacquer will bond to the polished faced of the alloy, i'd imagine it wouldn't!!!

from what i got told of the clubpolo lot laquer can dull the surface of the polished alloy, the alu magic stuff gives good protection and just use it every 2-3 weeks to clean, aslong as you can be bothered to do it it should be ok.

i'm lucky that the monza's are pretty much a flat face wheel so cleaning them takes no time at all, just a quick wipe does it, so i reckon gonna i'm try it with that alu magic stuff. i'll keep all informed of progress, gonna start strippin them after "Hollyoaks" (sad i know!! lol).
