Anodized Steering Wheel Question..


jgmgti

Recommended Posts

I purchased a Momo Prototipio 350mm steering wheel.The 3 spokes are black anodized aluminium.Can these be polished to achieve a polished look?

*If not what is the process of prepping the spokes for paint?

*Any ideas or solutions would be appreciated.

Thanks

yep, same anodizing as on my Monte Carlo. mine needs to be gone over again however. just work your way down to like 800 grit or something, then polish with aluminum/wheel polish by hand. tape off the edges of the leather tho. dont ask :(

light sanding and a good cleaning will prep for paint.

polish using up to 600-800 grit sand paper, then use a good polish like Mothers or Flitz, then clean very well and I like to apply Flitz Wax over the polished sections for oxidation prevention.

so this baby seal walks into a club...
