1. oven pride
2. depending how bad the sidewalls are you can start with 80 or 150 using a block
3. 240, 320, 400, 500, 800,
4. 1000 avlon pad wet, 1200 wet, 1500 wet, 2000 wet, 3000 pad wet
5. brasso
6. auto sol all over the rim and polish using a machine ( i use a car polisher/ compound machine)
they should come out flat no marks and gleaming like glass :4_17_5:

MartyC:
For all the hassle it will take you, send them to an experienced polisher and one that understands how important they are so they don't polish our the stamping or polished the edges off. Look at what he did for Gashead....
