That idea has to be completely insane not to mention unsafe. A magazine I get runs a column once in awhile with such stunbts calling them 'darwin awards'. I can picture it, a car up on jackstands, engine on, wheels spinning...brewsky in one hand, rag with polish in other hand on spinning wheel.

Blotto guy then catches the polishing rag on spinning wheel and his arm is torn off! Or car falls off jack stand and kills someone or at least causes major property damage.

Come on yous guys. Be safe!

< start the engine,
put the car in gear,
rear wheel turns,
you hold the steel wool or rag with the polish on it against the lip. The car does the work.
You can drink a beer with the other hand.>>
