Like it alot!
I've heard of that being done before but if I try it on mine I'll find a way of holding the wet and dry paper with something that isn't my fingers 'cause I roll my own fags!

Ive done this before with brake discs to grind the lip off the edge, on a fwd though with someone holding the steering wheel, great way if you cant get to a lathe

Have you clear coated the rim's ?
Would some proper paint rubbing/cutting compound be better than T-cut/etc ?
May be if they are too shiney they will look to showy ? It's a little hard to tell unless you see them in the flesh i guess ?

The health and safety guys have been trying to get rid of this stuff for years.
For Christ sake (or who ever ) Please be careful.
Bloody good idea though.
