Found new source to Polish Fuchs - $40

I found a guy here in Maine that can polish wheels for $40 - $50.

This one cost me $40. Let me know what you think and I can spread the word.

I think he does do paint. No powdercoat though.

He is not on a this forum nor does he have a business location. He operates out of his garage. I told him I would see if there is interest and if there was I would report back to him. He did ask me if I would be willing to market his talents to Porsche owners. And for assurance issues, I would even extend to Pelicans to manage the inquiries, shipping and payment exchange since he doesn't have a PayPal account. He doesn't even have an email account. He likes CASH however .

Basically what i would be doing is using my address for shipping in Maine, using my PayPal account and just be the liason. Does this work for you Pelicans? Just a thought.

Also, one other note. He is not the most expeditious person. One wheel took a week. Maybe if he see's or if I can convince him that there is a market for his ability he may speed it up a bit.

Ok here is the deal.

He wants me to handle the scheduling and pricing and shipping. Old guy doesn't like "new fangled ways".

If you have a set that needs polishing, send me a PM with wheel type and condition with pics preferred. If stripping is required price will be higher of course. The shipping is not included in the price mentioned above but shipping cost will be quoted before scheduling.

If this agreeable or if you have questions, send me a PM

They are Weds. 14x7, et11. There are some alpinas that are similar in design.

I'll send the OP a PM about getting these polished.
