sanding decorative holes in wheels
The decorative 1.75 inch holes in my 22.5 inch wheels need aggressive sanding. I've read your instructions about using 320-600 grit sandpaper- I assume do it by hand? Can I buy something to fit my hand drill for this? Some kind of small drum with formed sandpaper to fit the drum? Should this be wet sandpaper?

Re: sanding decorative holes in wheels
we use one of our 1.5 cylinder felt bobs, and reverse wrap a piece of 5" da paper with sticky back on it around the felt bob. seems to work quite well. you might find a 1.5 diameter flap wheel that would work too.
