Dear Heloise
Even with a lot of work and time, I see no way to get a buffer into all the
nooks and crannies of my stainless wire wheel covers. Do you have a way to
clean these nasty covers and make them shine?
Thanks
Bill

Mother's makes a "Mini" Powerball that attaches to your drill (cordless) and
comes with an extension. Using Mother's metal polish (I used Alluminum and
it worked good on my stainless trim) It is a small heavy duty sponge ball
and does a good job. Just start out slow on a multi-speed drill so as not to
throw the polish. Cleans up good with soap and warm water.

Speaking of wire wheel covers, I have a set and a car without the right
wheel covers. Anybody ever see a set on a 52 4 door?

Dear Heloise
Thanks for the tip. Tonights dishes had to wait for the wheel covers to
cycle through the pots and pans cycle and with the Cascade they came out
clean and shiny. I'll probably work around them with a toothbrush, buff the
outer rings and run them through one more time.
What a group!
