So since you went to autozone for the aircraft stripper, and thats where im gonna go....how much should i need for all four wheels?
I want to buy the can and have it be enough for all four.
Do you think thats feasable? (sp?)

Re: (American.Graffiti)
One can worked for two wheels. So i would pick up two cans. Should cost under 14 dollars.
It started raining cats and ***** out so I only did two wheels tonight..
They are stripped and used steel wool #003 coarse to get down and dirty.
Then #00 to buff
Then #0000 to super buff.
Didn't do much, About the same as the pic above ^
But, Tomorrow is supposed to be a nice day with no rain, So i am going to get the sanding done tomorrow for the two wheels that i have stripped so far.
I noticed if I dont go in the direction of the machining marks That it wont look right. So Circular motion, OVER, and OVER. Kinda like the Karate kid. Wax on Wax off, Without the waxing.
I think im going to have a smoke, drink and watch a movie cause my arms are all tired and S*it
Will def post more pics when I get more progress done.
So far only 2 hours into the photo story, but i will keep em coming

actually, I was wondering what process you used for sanding, Grit wise, and if you used a sanding block, or an electrical sander. I was thinking Electrical Sander for the coarse and block sanding when I get up to the 1000+ stages.
Any input would help me out. Thanks
