What is the code on the Dremel polish wheel flapper? Looked for it this weekend in Lowes and Home Depot but couldn't find and having trouble finding it on the Dremel site

Thanks again for the help

I get to polish some aluminum rims for my Dodge truck. I'll throw up my technique when I get into the trenches on that. The best tool you can have is help from a friend! Luckily one of my neighbors like chatting and drinking beer while helping me work on things sometimes. He already polished one of them about halfway. :)

HAH they already powder coated both the bumpers black and some engine parts some transparent purple type color. The previous owner of the Dodge truck that these aluminum rims are for was the manager of the powder coat place. Funny you mentioned them. Now the truck needs some shiny wheels. I got some pretty cool aluminum polish compound and also one of those Flitz polishing balls. Those are pretty handy!
