Metal refinishing
I have the 3 spoke Wolfsburg steering wheel where the spokes are made in aluminium. I will be having the wheel retrimmed in Nappa leather by MJ interiors ( most likely) Before I send it to them, I want the aluminium looking its best. Anyone know have to get it look as good as new?

You sure its aluminium?
I might be wrong but I would say its plated steel.

Off to the platers for reverse plating, polish then new chrome plate.

Hi, could I ask how much you paid for the leather trim and re-plate of the steering wheel please. Have one that I'm keen to do exactly the same refurb on.jazman said

For aluminium I use ever smoother sandpaper down to about 1500 grit.then mothers aluminium and metal polish. It's amazing stuff bring that aluminium and other metals like brand new
