Aluminum slots polishing

[Mac2Night]

can anyone recommend where someone can have a set of aluminum slots polished in Atlanta-area?

Also, what can someone expect to pay for polishing?

Thanks,
Mac

Mac, I had Best Metal Polishing in Lilburn do some trim for me and they did a great job. I don’t know how much they charge for wheels...

Most truck stops have a guy that polishes and more importantly "seals" aluminum wheels and trim.
If you're lucky he's a little crack head that'll do it for next to nothing. That may sound a little harsh but I've hit up a number of truck stops and it seems like every time it's a squirrely looking little Feller that I wouldn't trust to leave my vehicle with but every time does a great job on the wheels

^^^ No help for OP but that’s hilarious right there Bronconut.

Blue magic....get it at autozone for around 10 bucks. Polish it with a power drill till it turns black, then wipe off with a cotton t shirt.

I polished an entire Airstream trailer with that stuff and it is amazing.

Use a power drill and the little buffer wheels that come with most polishing kits and you will be amazed.

What sealer can you use ?

I'm going to be laughing for a couple of days on the "squirrely looking little Feller" comment. There's a few of those SLLFs around my neighborhood....

Yeah the stuff really works. 200+ hours it took to polish that Airstream.

Zoops is a great sealer.
Supposed to last a year.

Before and after shot . I used a power ball and mother's metal polish. I did acid wash it first also

Beautiful Airstream....

Thanks man! We actually were running a mobile photobooth out of it and would do weddings and other events. It was pretty fun, but boy you should have seen some of the tight spots I had to fit that thing into....it was hair-raising!

If you have an air buffer and some of the Mother's aluminum polish you can do it yourself. Just takes time and elbow grease!

COST me 60....put I had a local guy do my spare. It was really bad but very happy with the end product!

The local polishers get $45 per wheel here in San Diego.

Just another option............
I use White Diamond Polish. It does an amazing job on my wheels.
You can get it at Orielly's use the same steps as mentioned above.
