:thumbsup:i wanted to share what iv been working on. I removed a front hub from a 19" that along with a Mikes XS spoke kit will become my 18 x 2.15 front wheel. I started by useing a stripper to get the olf clear coat off the hub and rim. i then wet sanded with 150,220,400,600 then steel wool. i stopped at harbor freight today and picked up a cheep 39 bucks cheep buffer and it seems to work well.
