Started a new winter project in prep for Louisville

[Larry Phillips]

I removed my 17 inch wheels and replaced them with the stock 15's so I can clean them up. I'm currently bathing them with Greased Lightning and buffing them out. I need to get a corded drill this weekend, fitted with buffing pads to do the actual wheels, but right now I'm using my Dremel with a buffing pad and Mother's Billet polish to clean up the center caps. I've finished one cap after 2 nights work and it now has a mirror shine close to chrome. I'm thinking about coating them with a protectant, or something but I don't have the foggiest clue what to put on them to maintain their mirror appearance. I'll take some before/after pics of the center caps ASAP. I'm also looking to replace the center cap logos with either new SVT caps, or some custom ones with a monotone version of my website signature. The current ones are scuffed up and starting to peal.

That looks good! I did a set of inki rims on my firebird. After I striped and polished them I had them powder coated clear. Just an idea.

Have them clear anodized. Shouldn't cost much.
