You are on a roll Brandon! Great results and makes you feel good when it shines up. Hey I took a page from your play book and went back and hit my front wheel again but this time with the Dremel tool and new accessories for it. I'm doing this with the wheel installed.

And that's taking pics with a POS phone camera. No justice as we talked about but wow what a difference in person.

The Dremel polishing is untouchable. I did a test spot of 1 inch on the wheel lip with the Dremel and felt pad, then did another test with a cotton polishing wheel on my Dewalt drill. Dremel looked cleaner. I ran out of felt wheels for the Dremel and went over the rest of wheel with the cotton polishing wheel. I can still see the Dremel test spot - it’s still brighter than the rest of the wheel! Dremel polishing FTW

This is a continuing thread because the other one got too big and had to be closed. Just a size issue. No difference between the two.

Damn! What polishing wheel are you using? There might be hope for my factory rims on my 2500HD after all!!

Looks good
