The Alloy Wheel Refurbishment Process – Full Step-by-Step Guide

Full Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1

Wheel Removal & Initial Assessment

We begin by carefully removing your wheels from the vehicle and conducting a full inspection to check for kerb damage, cracks, corrosion, and any signs of wear that may affect safety or appearance.

Step 2

Tyre Removal & Chemical Stripping

Next, the tyres are removed and the alloy wheel is stripped of old paint, lacquer, and contaminants using specialist chemical treatments. This ensures a clean surface for accurate repair and refinishing.

Step 3

Damage Repair & Surface Preparation

Any scuffs, dents, or cracks are professionally repaired. We may weld cracks or fill imperfections, then smooth and sand the surface to prepare it for a flawless new finish.

Step 4

Powder Coating or Diamond Cutting

Depending on your selected finish, we apply a durable powder coat or carry out CNC diamond cutting. Both techniques deliver a smooth, long-lasting finish with exceptional aesthetic quality.

Step 5

Oven Curing & Quality Inspection

The wheels are then cured in an industrial oven to harden the finish. Each wheel undergoes strict quality checks to ensure the result is even, smooth, and corrosion-resistant.

Step 6

Tyre Refitting, Balancing & Final Fitting

Once complete, the tyres are refitted, the wheels are balanced, and then reinstalled on your vehicle. A final inspection is carried out before handing your car back, ready to hit the road.
