Polishing wheels
I have Accuride (un-coated) wheels. What does anyone use to polish them. There is so many aluminum polishes on the market, is one any better than another? Does anyone use the Mequires ball?

I replied sure, 75 bucks a wheel and the owner told me at 75 bucks, he would keep me busy polishing wheels as much as I wanted to.
Going rates at a chrome shop run anywhere from $600 to over $1000, for tanks and wheels. That would put your $75 a wheel right about standard rates to cut and polish.
Last guy advertising on the C.B. at a truck stop, told me $35 a wheel and $50 for the tanks. Quick math had me at over $300 bucks. I offered $150, he countered at $200, we settled on $175. Six rims, a 120 gallon and a 80 gallon fuel tank, battery boxes....the works. Took two of them a couple hours to knock out the whole truck.
Dirty work, but not bad TAX FREE money, for a couple guys with a generator, angle grinder and polishing wheels....working out of the back of a mini van.
