Default pics of the centerlines

since they were off the truck, i decided to take my time and polish the stingrays.
used...
mother's power ball
way2ez from thunderracing
meguiar's clearner wax (don't know if it will help, just want to see if it will repel water)

Looks good!! Those look as shiney as chrome. You and I are thinking alike. Just did mine this weekend with the mothers alum polish with a dremel. 6 hours later they are done. Of course it just snowed here so I have about 3 months before I get to put mine back on for the summer.

They look so nice when they are freshly polished. I really need to do mine too while they are off for winter.

The cleaner wax will help but pure carnuba will hold up longer. I use the meguires pure carnuba.
Oh, btw those look very purty!

thanks guys.
the last time i polished them well (off the truck) was a year ago.
they're hard to keep up but when they are freshly polished, i think they look better than chrome.

my stock wheels are on the truck now from when i went to the track 2 weeks ago.

thanks for the tip trever
