    Aluminum Wheel prep and polish

    Iwould like to know how to go about prepping and polishing a alum wheel that has a satin finish with clear coat. Metal is smooth just not bright.

    I think I misread your question. Are you saying you want to fully polish the wheel or achieve a satin finish? Brightness levels go from flat, satin, semi, gloss, mirror.

    Remove the clear coat completely. If the finish is still smooth, White/Cotton to bring out a brilliant luster.
