Great turnaround on those wheels! And very nice correction as well...what brand rotary is that? I've never seen one with a knuckle guard for the drive hand.

Re: Black 1995 Porsche 993 with Sourneran

Thanks for the comments!

The rotary is a Vector, and you can put the handle on either side, which is great for when you get fatigued.

The wheels look good, but up close the lip is not mirror polished like they are when new, and on the backside there still is rust deep in the seam where the center section bolts to the 2 halves of the rim, but there is no way to get there without dissasembling the wheel. But the owner was more than pleased with the results on the wheels!
I usually take wheels off the cars I do as part of the job, and do the backsides with Wheel Brightener to get them nice, but most of the cars lately are cars that have never been detailed like this and the wheels are in really bad shape; WB 4 times with a stiff brush won't even get all the black out from the under the spokes

Like I tell customers, the best, quickest and easiest way to clean a car is to keep it clean, especially wheels. But from now I'll probably skip this step unless an in-depth wheel cleaning is requested. I still have sore knucles from this job!
