220 and some wet sanding have my fingers feeling like there about to fall off.
I got the heavy stuff off but there hideous. So there getting dipped black until I get to the next step.
Idk what else to do, and I don't wanna ride around with hazy, ghetto looking wheels. I figured black with chrome lug nuts and centers will look fine for the time being.
What do y'all think??

Can you get a small buffer from hf and use some Polish on them? Only thing I can think of, besides the dip.

I sanded mine from 400 up to 1500 with an orbital and then polished with Mothers/power cone and they came out looking real good, almost like chrome. Don't have any pics though. Took about 1 hour per wheel.

How'd you get in all the groves with an orbital?

Glad to see you finally made it over here!
