Default Mothers Powerball rules...

This should probably be in the detailing section but I like to post here. If a mod wants to move it please do. I just got my powerball kit yesterday and took it out for a test run today on my fatboy wheels. My wheels are 6 years old but look brand new again. I always keep em relatively clean but I am really happy with the job the pwoerball has done. I also got my 8 ball valve stem caps from Spudster and thought I'd take a pic. I really enjoy ahving enough time on my hands to spend time doing this kinda stuff. It keeps me sane. Merry Christmas weekend to all.

Nice job. I use a Powerball to shine the alloy wheels on my Vette. Works great.

Looks great!!
Did you use the Powerball on the rough center portion as well?
How about those small holes?

I have not used it on the rough part yet but as soon as I got inside and started to think about it I decided I would next time I head out. The problem with the little "holes" in the wheels is that polish occasionally gets stuck in there and picks up dirt. That'll ahve to wait till I pull out the hose to get clean.

Oh, and I bought my bike used with all the chrome goodies on it already. The biggest thing I did was put on some taller apes than it had and change the tins from silver to black.
