Finishing the 3 peace wheel repair. How to polish raw aluminum. I made a run to So Cal for the replacement wheel lip that goes on the C5 Corvette, I’m finishing up installing the new part and in the process I have to polish because it was only available in a mill finish. Side note this is also how you repair curb rash on any aluminum wheel or just remove scratches and brighten up the aluminum again.

Also picked up a new bench grinder that was a great buy off Amazon, seriously this is one good machine for the price.
