How to Polish a Valkyrie Wheel

Alright guys, this is how you sand without doing a lot of scrubbing. Pick your old drill pressed, put it on a rubber wheel from a sanding wheel, you put it on a drill, set it up next to your tire, give it a spin. Got you water because we are going to wet sand this to get your 220. At 320, your 600 and 1000, it would probably take a few hours. It is going to good in wet. What we are going to do for the next couple of hours, leave that to them and it is just go Well, sanding my wheel using my little jig here and my drill pressed, I want to minimize the side pressure on the chat, drill press was not made to take that kind of side pressure over a period of time. So, what I have chosen to do is leave the sandpaper on the sanding drum which just increases the traction a little bit. Besides, I am just wearing a little bit of the right of the tire and if you have a balfer for you know that the left side will soon catch up. So, typically, what I do is just press it up here against slightly, spin the wheel a little bit, just to get it going, and then turn it on. Trying the side to stop the wheel, and I usually pull the drill press cover that first. I set up the drill and you can see that, this jig that I have built for the wheel moves smoothly enough, that it will cost for quite a little while. All right, so let us talk about what I am using to spin this wheel. First thing I did, I got myself a—just a fuse I use 2 x 6, where the one inch point at the portion or bit. I put a lap of tape around the head of the actual, and push it down their and it is good in snow, I do not have anything else holding actually. On that top of that, I put out just the 2 x 4 that just raises the wheel up and up the tires is not going to touch, and then the last piece, there is something I cut out, 2 and 8 inch hole is big enough, so I have to use jig saw to make a 2.5 inch hole, and put some just general molly grease on it, and that fits very nicely, right on top of that, does not heard anything. You can put the wheel over, that will work to both sides. So, I just put this down, center it, drop the wheel down on top of it, and off you go. All right, this wheel, as you are looking at it, it has been sanded down to a 1000 grits move, just by holding my hand on the wheel as we rotate around. This time, since we are going to use the drill and the buffing wheel, I put the drill pressed on the slowest speed and, since we are using a drill. Yap, eye protection, and this is kind of a noisy one, so, ear protection. This is a black rouge on a 6” wheel, and I recommend at least a 6”, because you are trying to get in here to the spokes, if you are using a 4” buffer, you would not be able to clear the tire on your way in to getting to this. Now, watch. You see the buff? You see the sign come up on here pretty fast. [Drilling Sound] Be sure to clean the buffering wheel regularly, and re-apply rouge during the polishing process. I will start with a fairly, heavy pressure, and then lighten the pressure as it falls this up a little bit. [Drilling Sound] Hey, if anybody else, this is a great process for polishing your wheels. Tell him, you think it is. Thanks for watching.
