Advise on restoring polishing Mag Wheels

Hi actually I do not have a bike but a 73 Plymouth Roadrunner. Mopars are as timeless as a bike ! I have some deep dish mag wheels Ansens 15x10 they are very dull and have blemishes scratches Etc. I have read the VERY useful advice from the folks here some smart ones I might add. I guess the procedure would be about the same but advise on sanding how to wet or dry ? and polishing till the black is gone ????????

Thanks for the post,

Mag wheels have been covered here before. Search the site with reference to fire dangers working with mag wheels, and with regard to the fact that many owners have "given up" trying to keep mag shiny. But some advise is offered about lacquering vs. clear coats, etc.
