garyf Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Are you trying to get rid of the old Varnish?If so paint stripper might get it off.I refurbished a Formula Wood rimmed wheel for my Vitesse many moons ago, I think I removed the old varnish with fine sandpaper too.The secret to a deep shine with standard varnish is Lots of coats rubbed down in between each coat, I must have put 15 coats on mine and used Wire wool if I remember correctly?
