Feel like I should have posted an update a very long time ago, but finally got around to dealing with my centre caps! So I sanded them using 120 grit paper to start, gradually going finer and finer up to 800 and then switching to wet and dry 1000, 1500 and then 2000 grit. No need to go any finer rea...

Many thanks. That would make it worth my while. I'll try and see if I can get the time off now.

Wow, there are now 109 rotaries paid up for this event. Absolutely amazing! The limit is 120, so if you were thinking of going, not much time left before it sells out! How many FB's and Elford FB's going Casey? Call me a purist if you like but I'm interested if enough FB's will be there, but not re...

Probably not the best place to post this, but not quite sure where to do exactly that. Anyway.... https://www.goodwood.com/grr/event-coverage/members-meeting/this-mazda-rx-7-is-a-tribute-to-win-percys-title-winner/?utm_source=The%20Goodwood%20Estate%20Company%20Ltd&utm_medium=email&utm_campa...

Most probably I will chemical strip and then repaint the black with a suitable paint that flows well when wet to leave a smooth shiny finish. But lot more research to do on this before I attempt this.

You can refurbish the cap in the same way you've done with the wheels. I would try to polish the lacquere down only. And a little hand polish the cap time by time, when not use in salty winter. The rims were acid stripped, powder coated to colour of the pockets, then diamond cut and finally recoate...

Depends what center caps you will refurb and the condition they just have. Pictures should help to help. Its these ones. As you can see Ive had my wheels refurbed and the centre caps are letting the side down now. I'm thinking I can strip the lacquer off, polish them a little and then re lacquer th...

Has anyone tried stripping,cleaning, polishing and recoating their wheel centre caps? Any advice on how best to do this and what products to use?

TIA

Congratulations, there was you saying you couldn't wait to do it 😉😉. I must admit due to the need of extra space, that's why I tackled the rear first, I'll be interested to hear if you feel any difference now it's running on poly bushes and if it rides any lower. Happy rotating. Dibs Thanks DIBS. I...
