Shine Side Rims.
« on: June 01, 2010, 02:01 PM »
What is the best method for removing the anno from a wheel rim to create a shine side without making a balls up of the anno on the inside of the rim ? Thanks  :)

I would say start  with 800 quid wet and dry on a rubbing block, to minimise the risk of going over the 'corners', then go up to 1000 grit, 1200, then 1500

Cheers

That explains why I got no response to my wanted thread ... ''Block paved chainring 44T wanted''  :D


Them rims and chainwheel are untrue mate :4_17_5:





Nath , Mr costa is right imo , you want to start with something a bit coarser than 800's , use a sanding block like weeksy said too to keep it flat  ;)  I can see a resto thread ' before and after' here Nath  :daumenhoch:
