Gave my wheels a good clean yesterday and I must admit they look good. Yep there are a few tarnishes on the laguer but the wheels do look good.
Anyway I was around a friends house who has a Harley like mine but his front forks were looking a bit tarnished and oxidized but that was a few weeks ago.
Since then he wet and dried them with a very fine paper then set about them with solvo which he used cardboard to apply the solvo and then gave them their final polish with a rag.
The result is like something else.
They are almost mirror like now and do not have those horrible twirl marks you some times see on pollished metal.
Got me thinking I wonder what the result would be on my wheels.
If I can pick up one wheel of flea bay I might give it a go.
Not going to attempt it on my good wheels untill I see the results on a spare one.
There were some wheels on Flea bay for sale that whoever had pollished them did not know what they were doing and made a right mess of them. That will not happen to me.
I know that you can have your wheels re fubished at a wheel speacilist but honestly they would be no where near as good as what my friends forks look like. Just another project for later on. Will keep you posted.
