Well my new gloss black wheels were supposed to be finished yesterday but aren't ready so have started to to clean up the front callipers using wonder wheels and a steel brush its hard work. I have decided to concentrate on repainting the fork lowers. When I have the time I'll disconnect the calipers and give them a proper clean then laquer them. When I have some spare time I'll post some photos.
