How to polish a drive wheel on the truck, on the ground, and without a jack - Evan's Detailing

Sorry that the lighting is terrible as it was mid summer in Wisconsin in July and the sun was at perfect noon. But it was the only time I had an opportunity to film polishing a wheel on the ground. Polishing using a jack is definitely my preferred method of operation as you have seen in almost all of my wheel polishing videos but everyone kept asking for a video on how to do it on the ground and on the truck so here is my way. There really isn't a right and wrong way when it comes to this topic. My way may not be right for you but here is how I accomplish it.
