My 108s My Way

[t-tony]

Didn't mean that. It all depends what crud the previous owner covered them in, I just meant that they clean up well.

Lower your price and buy some tyres Steve, we can't wait much longer!

Tony.

If only it was that easy Tony.
I can see the credit card getting another beating very soon. I can't walk pass my 108s every day sat in my hall way for long.

Would be nice to mop the heads but I don't have the equipment.

You may need to do what I did Steve, I stacked mine in the garage for about 4-5 months under an old curtain out of sight (albeit not refurbed) and out of mind, they only went on at calliper and hub paint up time in Feb.

A polishing mop in an electric drill would do the job mate.

I did pop in to Tesco's to buy Autosol put they did have any. I'll have to pop into Halfords tomorrow

This afternoon I popped over to
@Russell O's to polish up my wheel bolts and to watch Russell work his magic on my near side door.
Naturally we chatted more than we worked. I can't remember what make and model of car we spoke about

 

[Low Rider]

Just looking through ebay and found these.

Steve polishing his nuts..........

 

[Antm72]

You go careful Steve too much nut polishing will make you go blind

 

[Low Rider]

It sure does with that Autosol

Go on - humour me

 

[Low Rider]

I took one of them to Russell if I'd thought about it I could have placed it along side your tyre.

 

[StephenM]

That's amazing I had no idea you could do that to a set of wheels - thank you for a very interesting read - I will be interested to see the final finish

 

[Low Rider]

Thank you Me to. I must get round to choosing my tyre's
