Since this bike was more or less neglected for several years before I got hold of her, the rear wheel is not pretty to look at.  It's oxidized and rough.  Any ideas how to get it cleaned up and looking right?  I'm waiting on a tire I ordered, so I'll not be putting her back together for a little while.

Aluminum polish and elbow grease.  After it is washed with soap and water.  A mother's power ball on a drill helps a lot. with the polish.  Hoser  Smiley
