If you have the original lips on your ACS Type 2, they have a clear coat from factory on the lips and maybe that why it's harder to get a nice result.

The clear coat on mine was peeling in some area and I used paint stripper to removed it and polished the lips after
 
Thanks! I realized after doing the 4 wheels that i hate doing this kinda shit! lol Props to the detailers out there!

You might not be perfectly equipped either...Did you do it by hand or you had some kind of polishing wheel?

Ya that might why it was hard?

By hand.. I'm sure the right tools would help get more shine out of them also and be a lot faster!
