Thank you, I will be posting another video soon

 

Well done. This will look cool.

Reminds me of what I did as a student in the university laboratory.
At that time from metal scraps
we made samples to study their structure under a microscope. It was required to achieve a smooth mirror surface - a bunch of students sat and shuffled their pieces of iron for several hours. The latecomer received the alloy for the bayonet from the AK-74, a metal so hard that several generations of students could not make anything worthwhile out of this piece.

 

Here’s the 5th instalment of the aluminium alloy Cobalt SS rims

 

And these photos are of the re-finished rims...

 

Is there any hope for this wheel? It's shiny where the clear coat has completely come off.

 

Sure , either sand or chemical paint strip the clear off, then sand and buff then polish, you can either polish them after that or clear them .



These are my next set of 17” 2LT aluminium rims.

One has some curb rash

But from this distance, they look good, and at 60 MPH they look awesome, so you don’t have to go overboard buffing and compounding and polishing.
