Did they do the face of the wheel as well? Is it polished with no clear coat?

Yup, it was cheaply chromed and cracking. I had my wheels disassembled, stripped and then polished. I wanted clearcoat, but I ran out of time for a show. I do like the finish on an uncleared polished wheel, I just hate the work involved with the up keep. :P

It cost me I think $130/wheel, that included everything except clearcoat.
I really havent found a "miracle" compound that will make it easy to polish wheels, it really takes a lot of effort to keep them the way they are.
