Who ?

YOU CAN !! With a bit of application.

It'll save you a fortune and as a bonus, you'll have nice new skin ( after 4 weeks or so ) all over your fingers. Very Happy

i dont the rocker covers on my pug took frikin ages! Heres what i done:

Step 1: Paint remover
Step 2 : Really rough paper to remove the cast marks on the metal
Step 3 : Worked up the grades
Step 4: Used wet and dry moving up the grades
Step 5 Washed then Polished with autosol - that stuffs the dogs

I spoke to a guy in tring about spraying my wheels and he said you can get all that prep work done by a sand blaster. He said theres a good bloke at a farm near Bourne End. He can get everything sweet by using the different grades then all you will have to do is use the autosol to get it bling bling!

What finish do you put on it? Do you lacour it or leave it and have to polish lots?
