A tip-top and well-maintained alloy wheel adds extra light and life to your car’s appearance. Buying a set of alloy wheels for your car enhances the appearance and performance of your car. Alloy wheels are softer than steel wheels and are more susceptible to damages like corrosion, dents, kerb damages, and peeling of paints.

Changing them when damaged can get very expensive and burn a hole in your pocket. The best solution is to visit a specialist wheel workshop and get your alloy wheels refurbished to bring back the beautiful and shining look. There are different wheel refurbishments available, but it entirely depends on your budget on which type of wheel refurbishment you will go for.

Types of Wheel Refurbishment

Professional wheel refurbishment has four types:

• Cosmetic repair
• Coatings and paint finishes
• Polishing
• Diamond cutting

Process Followed By Professional Wheel Refurbishment Companies

There is a fixed process that is followed by most wheel refurbishment companies. The following processes are regular when doing a normal wheel refurbishment job:

• Scrub the alloys back to basics
• Scrape and sand down the alloy to a smooth finish
• Fill in any dents
• Thoroughly clean your alloys to get them ready for painting
• Apply a couple of coats of primer on the alloys
• Apply a final paint finish

Please note that Diamond Cut Alloy Wheel Refurbishment follows a different procedure altogether, and we consider it the gem among wheel refurbishment
