Re: Pick a card ?.......any card
Good mate of mine does alloy repairs, when he started out diversifying from valeting he usedto do 'tyre on repairs', stacks and stacks of plastic cards fordoing exactly what you have, i don't have the patience to put them all in!

No mate....reallllly quick.
A tip, run a bead of clear silicon (on the rubber only), then slide them in behind the rim, takes 10mins max after the first one.
I used a cloth polishing wheel with scratch remover cream as an agent, mounted on a shaft/electric drill to clean the insides after a good wash/scrub down. quick top coat/laq, done, , 3 hours for 2 wheels
Its most likely be the fronts that need anything more than a really good clean.....so a Saturday afternoon
