They've held up well

- Sat Apr 16, 2011 9:51 pm #250750 i know this diy is pretty old but man your wheels came out great.. i had a question though i just bought these rims and they were painted poorly.. i read on here that i can use aircraft stripper to remove the old paint. my question is once its removed can i use the other diy on how to polish my rims to make the stock look come back to life.. any help would be great.
thanks
