Weld wheels for Bushtec
« on: November 16, 2015, 05:26:40 PM »

 Spent some time today polishing the wheels I picked up for my Bushtec. Fronts are roughed in back side is going to be a lot harder as no one has ever touched them. Will finish fronts once I get to Bushtec and get new tires put on.

That looks fantastic!
Are you planning on clear coating them to preserve the finish or are you just going to use a quality wax/polish to keep them shiny?

Thanks, i think they will look great on the trailer. Going to leave them raw and wax. Will re polish when need be. Never had much luck with clear coat. Seems it darkens the shine when applied.

Had a set like that a few. Years back, sold them to a guy in Texas.
