    I rented the Eastwood roller off of ebay. $35 rental, $32 shipping for both ways.

    I grind them smooth with a flap disc it doesn't heat the panel like a regular grinding wheel and no chance of cracking the paint.

    Ive seen it done heating the wheel well up a little bit to help from paint cracking, then leverage the bat against the tire and roll it. When we did it, we did it in steps, it wasn't a one shot deal.

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump
