Thanks guys! I posted this stuff on ARW's FB page... I got a bit of a response. They put me in touch with their PR people... We'll see what happens. I'm not holding my breath.

I worked on the rim today. Finished the sanding process. I took the whole wheel out to 2000 grit.


Once that was done I cleaned it up with mineral spirits and fired up the electric drill with a buffing cone in it. Loaded the cone with red rouge and gave the whole wheel a once over.
This is starting to look pretty tasty...

I again cleaned the wheel with mineral spirits and changed over to an unsewn buffing pad with the same red rouge to get down into the space between the rim and the center. This is quite deep... I also used the unsewn buff to really clean up the wheel bead.

Once that was done I re-cleaned the wheel and swapped to a new unsewn buff and white rouge. After about 15 minutes this is what I have.

This is almost there.

It is still a bit swirly looking but THERE ARE NO WAVES!!! This is where a couple of deep hand polishing's will finish it off.

I'll use Mother's Billet Polish first and finish up with White Diamond.
