Need more information for proper answer. What is the material involved? Other than mirror finish, are there areas that do not get polished? What volume of wheels are involved? Do you want to do these manually or automated? Wheel rims are tricky and can be done in a number of ways. More than likely, these wheels are made from aluminum alloys and are subject to material handling problems.

I am tring to polish my 1994 Ford Escort and I can't get them to shine I have tried everything from 000 steel wool ⇦ on eBay or Amazon [affil link] to a buffing wheel. Do you know anything to help me get them to shine.

Thanks,
