This is for those that are leary about polishing alum. These are the Shelby rims I'd just stripped prior to pc'n them black. They're polished alum and pc'd a grayish color, so I stripped them ( 1012 at room temp ) to bare metal. I put the rims face up in the stripper just barely covering the top area that was pc'd. The stripper was brand new and it did take the polish/shine off except where I kept the polished top lip out of the stripper. You can see the fluid level line and a quick rub on the side shot and where I polished it out away from the tape line for the pc on the inside shot. I didn't need any "fancy equip" to do this, just some Mothers Power Metal polish for alum, an applicator, polishing towel, hot water, dish soap, sponge ( to get the polishing residue off ) and some elbow grease. It's not that hard, hope this helps someone!
