Process
The Alloy Refurbishment process
-
01
Assessment
The refurbishment process begins with a thorough inspection of the wheels to identify any damage or imperfections. Technicians assess the extent of the repairs required and determine the most appropriate course of action.
-
02
Preparation & cleaning
The technicians remove the wheels from the vehicle and proceed with the refurbishment process. The wheels are thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, brake dust, and any other contaminants.
-
03
Sanding & priming
The wheels are sanded down to create a smooth surface, removing imperfections and preparing them for the application of a new finish. The alloys are then primered to ensure the alloy has a good adhesion prior to the painting phase.
-
04
Painting
A new finish is applied to the wheels using a painting technique. Painting involves applying a liquid paint coating, which is also cured to achieve a similar result.
-
05
Diamond cutting (this step will not apply for a standard alloy)
Once the painted wheel has been cured, it will be mounted onto a special CNC (Computer Numerical Controlled) lathe, and the face of the wheel will be precision machined to give it the diamond cut finish.
-
06
Lacquering
A clear coat is applied on top of the paint to provide additional protection and enhance the appearance of the wheel.
-
07
Baking
The wheels are cured at the appropriate temperature to ensure that the finish is fully hardened and bonded to the surface.
-
08
Quality check & reinstallation
The refurbished wheels undergo a final inspection to ensure the quality of the work. Once approved, they can be rebalanced & reinstalled on the vehicle.

The repair was done in a day much quicker than anticipated. A rental car was arranged and waiting for me. I expected this to be a big hassle.
