[QUOTE="FordFanStan, post: 1763763, member: 3669"] Headlights sold. I had the company that powdercoated the wheels, first acid dip the whole wheel. This removed all of the old powdercoat and clear coat that was flaking off anyway. It revealed a very porous ground type surface on the wheel face. Method does not smooth it out before they coat them. Then they were sanded and polished. I did not do this myself, so I can't to attest to how they did it. I know it was by hand. Pretty sure the tumbler method in ceramic media produces the best polished results, but places charge $200+ per wheel for polishing. You can also look into Zephyr polishes/products. They offer a lot of semi-wheel/tank polishing products. Hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
