interesting. Machine cost about $100K but I think the fellow in
Carlisle, who just started his business will do well for himself. If
you ever tried to polish a bad one the money seems like a
bargain.

PS When has lack of knowledge or understanding ever prevented a
person from having on expressing an opinion? If that were the case
the web would be a mighty quiet place. Most of us are likely
professionals at or especially knowledgeable about one or more
subjects. A wrong opinion or a misunderstanding is a opportunity to
educate not to criticise a person or persons for their ignorance. I
think respect is essential and I found some of that lacking in the
end.

Since the weather has finally started to be warm here in Montana, warm
I mean over freezing, I want to polish my wheels on the coach. Taking
the wheels off the coach, like Jeff Miller use to do, is not an option.
The last time I had them detailed was at the 2004 RIV. And I just wrote
a check. There are no detailers around here that I can find.
So- what's the best stuff to use
and what kind of buffer/equipment
should I get? Is there a top dressing that can be used after they are
polished?

John,

Thanks for the heads up!

I have polished a lot of metal in my career. It is the least
enjoyable part of my job and I don't relish the task of doing the
rims on my coach. Especially the new milled finsh rim I had to buy
away from home. That and the now miss matched tire on that rim just
ticks me off ever time I look at them.

VIS was very quick in their responce with a list of shops that have
their machines. I was quoted $50.00 per rim to mirror polish and
$50.00 per hour labor to take the tires/rims on and off the coach
from.

The milled finish rim might take a little longer but the avg. time
per wheel is less the 15 min.

If your rims are not nicked or scratched up too bad polishing by
hand or with some sort of powered buffer is fine and all the
mentioned products work well, but I'm not even going to try to buff
out machine mill groves from any rim. Why? 36 years of experiance in
polishing high grade firearms :} http://www.kguns.com

Check out the video @.

Below are operational North American locations where your rims can
be serviced. Pricing varies by area and by location. Some of the
shops have an exchange/used rim program. These shops are marked with
