Are your wheels looking old? Curbed? Scuffed? Scratched? Corroded? or just fancy a colour change?
To do these process’ companies are charging upwards of £60 a wheel depending on type and size.
Basically here’s the process:
· Remove tyres where required
· Remove previous balancing weights
· Alloys are chemical strip soaked to remove majority of old paint/laquers etc
· Wheels are bathed in hot cleaner
· Wheels are jet washed to remove all residue
· Then wheels are bead blasted to remove remaining coatings and to give paint a good key and even finish
· Kerb damage and scuffs are then taken out using hand polishing or a lathe
· If power coat option is taken the wheels are then powder coated
· Laquer which is optional for powder coating, which is then applied and baked on
· Tyres are then re-fitted if required
· Wheels then balanced if required
· Tyres are filled with air ready to roll
· For automotive paint finish’s the wheels are treated with etch primer
· Then sprayed with high quality paint via compressor with multiple coats
· Wheels are then laquer baked
· Tyres are then re-fitted if required
· Wheels then balanced if required
· Tyres are filled with air ready to roll
· For split rims the wheels are taken fully apart
· The nuts/bolts sent for chemical strip and nickel plate
· The barrels are then stripped/soaked/washed/blasted and damage removed as above
· The barrels can either go the power coat or automotive spray route
· They are then laquer baked
· The lips are then taken through various grits till a good finish is achieved
· The lips then get mirror compound polished
