Default Re: Need help restoring Super Trick and Motor Wheel finish

I work in a refinery and there are pipe cutting and threading tools used for small bore pipe there. They are open on one end so its easy to chuck the wheel in. Do this and clean all the oil and dirt first. Then use 320 grit or finer and let the machine turn as you "sand" it. You can control the finish because these machines turn slow. Did all four of mine and they looked brand new! Crager Super Tricks... With the clear coating gone, they are harder to keep looking that way but they can be coated again.

Sounds like a good place to start on the Super Tricks, now all I need is a big lathe.

Thanks for all the suggestions and help.
