Rear Wheel Polished and Laced Up!

 The rear hub was cleaned with a steel brush and sanded down with 150 grit all the way to 400 grit wet. On the left is the dirty rear hub on the right is the sanded hub cover.

 Final polish buffing wheel with a ultra fine compound

Final rim/wheel polished and laced. Lacing took about 2 hrs after the third attempt.

Will still need to remove the original bearings and replace with new. Grease and add new rubber bearing seals, and true the rim before mounting.
