yep hex look good on some things i used the buttons on my inner tins in on my old chevy i bet castle nuts are fun to buff the key slots out on the slots.when did my stuff i sanded then first with a da sander with fine paper 320 and up.have you tried that small sanding cord it only go,s as fine as 180 a good file would works as well .we use to prep the GM concept rims we came up with many ways to get to the hard spots the only bad thing was alot of it was by hand .were i could not buff a spots i like the MX mounted points run them at a lower speed on a die grinder

I'm pretty lucky Pat i have a pro buffer setup in my workshop and i also have a good friend that is a pro polisher and chromer so he gives me what i need to do the job the best way.
He supplied me with a load of felt wheels (he calls them bobs) that you glue up and then roll them in different grits 80, 180 & 320 they are absolutely fantastic for getting in places and especially good for raduising welds, They have speeded up the polishing process by 50% i reckon.
