Default Polishing aluminum wheels



I want to paint the centers of those wheels black, polish the lip and clear the whole wheel. If I polish the outer lip, will the clear adhere to it? I have special "paint for aluminum" from an automotive supply house.

Clearcoating will adhere to the polished lip. Just be sure the lips are completely free of any grease, wax, etc.

Thanks. I plastered this over 3 boards and that's the concensus.
