Default Re: What am I missing!!!

Thanks for all the info and products guys. This has really turned into a research project as much as a trailer build. Finally got some decent weather and did some experimenting.
. I tried the baby powder after mothers and it did remove a lot of the haze and shows no swirls but Sue and I just love the mirror finish we get without mothers. I think I know why things were not going right for me when I first posted this thread. I was switching double stack wheels on and off the motor and I may have installed them with one wheel turning in the natural direction of wear on it and the other going against the wear direction ??

I made a point of re matching direction of wear and marked the pads to prevent from happening again.....all I know is, today was a much better day and things are looking good I'm having more success running the swirl marks off the plate and after using baby powder looks real sharp.

Will post pics soon, here's a video of me in action

Thanks for looking and all the great input. I do plan on trying and using everything recommended by everyone in my quest for " chrome aluminum" lol
