laumk7 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 hi guys. i want to refurb the alloys on my car but dont want to pay somebody to do it. does any one have a step by step guide to help do it myself. would be much appreciated. :-) I've done it, and to be perfectly honest with you I'd pay someone to do it for you, it's easier, quicker and cheaper Sent from my iPad using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philf1 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Agree. Once did the alloys on an MGB that were black and gold took chuffing ages and that was only a paint job as wheels were in pretty good nick Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonah11 Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 Ok guys. Any ruff ideas of the price I'm looking at? :-) Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenST13 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Most places will charge around £30-£40 a wheel just painting. Or around £60 for powder coating. Now it depends on what your looking for as just painting you just get the face of the wheel done. Powder coat which is much better does the full wheel inside and the face any colour you want. If you want a colour change with just paint you most likely won't get the wheel backs done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevenST13 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 No probs Jonah. That's the problem with curbs they have a tendency to just jump out on you. Lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdeMk1 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 My local powder coaters charge £30 per wheel, includes media blasting, then primed & powder coated any base colour you like front and back. Special colours like pearls or flip are extra. If your alloys need repairs I'd get them blasted and repaired first before powder coating is done. I bought a set of temporary steel wheels for mine while my alloys were getting done as its about a 14 day turn around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
