Polishing ALCOA Aluminun Rims
Polishing my ALCOA rims has always been a hard task. Over 17 years I've gone from a couple times a year to...missed a year or two. The shoulders are not what they used to be and the less often you do them they harder they get; at least in my case.
I decided I break down and pay someone to do it. Well you know it's a hard job when you can't find anybody in eastern PA. Truck Dealers, Detail shops, etc.
Last but not least I asked a friend who's mod'ed some custom Trucks who did his chrome and aluminum polishing. I assumed he'd say a guy in his shop and then I'd ask the favor of seeing if I can pay that guy to do mine.
He said he used Zimmerman Carriers in Ephrata PA. I called them and sure enough they have a machine and a process that can't be beat.
Takes about 1.5 hrs./wheel and they look better than new.
They take appointments. I was there at 7:30 am and was out the door a 2pm. Great people! I can't say enough good about them.
If you're in the Lancaster PA area I would stop by and let them do it while you're visiting other attractions in the area.
