Default Re: Help!! Polishing Sandblasted Chrome.

well if its the satin finish your gonna go with then yeah what you then said will be fine mate.

Although on nice wide rims i do prefer the mirror polished rims, look so sweet once kept clean, they really do.

If you go satin, then emory and white will still come up with a good shine id say. Although the emory might take out some of the lines on the rim and maybe wont have such a satin look, maybe more mirror but not entirely.

If you do go mirror, then read the packet instructions carefully as the autosol we have in the uk says its for polishing and cleaning metal, but just after instructions says something like "*Please note. Not recommended for mirror finishes such as mirror finish alloys. For these applications use Autosol Showroom polish."
