Thanks trash and Al, but I do need to work on it some more. Fingers aren't too bad, but my drill isn't talking to me these days.

Looking at the pics, the wheel does look better now that it's been polished some. Can't really see the shine on my fork legs in the pic, but I would like the front wheel to come close to matching them.

Funny thing I noticed when I posted the before and after pics...I forgot to put the rubber stopper back in the front axle.
