Teardrop wheels were stock 14 inch VW wheels which came on many Mk2's and even on Cabriolet's.

As you can see, these teardrops have seen better days. After reading a post on the 'Tex about restoring teardrops, I figured I'd give it a try and see how it would turn out.

The wheels have a plastic like coating, which after time, brake dust and curbage, gets scuffed, yellowed and damaged. The aim here is to remove the coating, wet sand and finally finish polish.

Click along and see how it turned out.
