DIY How To Fix Wheel Curb Damage And Scratches! Easy!

No Messing about with Filler and Bondo!!!

Restore Damaged Wheels. How to Repair Rims with deep scratches and curb damage. This wheel repair works on your aluminium alloy and diamond cut rims no matter how deep the scratch or how bad the curb rash!!

This simple process involves a cheap rotary polisher/buffing machine to grind down the kerb damage and indentations within minutes.
I simply use 120 grit sandpaper on a rotary buffer, followed by 180 then 400 grit.

This is a cost effective way of repairing diamond cut wheels to get a great finish on your wheels.

Beauty of a job mate 🖒look showroom new. Encouraged me to get off my arse and get my alloys that are sitting doing nowt cleaned up and sold. Thanks fella for video!

[deanb]

Thanks for all your videos, wish I had your skills. Only thing I'd do differently in this video is I would have covered the car in the garage. I learned that the HARD way!

Im in the smart repair trade myself after leaving body shop seen most of your vids and some nice repairs, one thing id say to people who are watching is that u cant just put any lacquer on a repair like this it has to be etch lacquer so it bites into the bare metal just as you would use etch primer on bare metal on body panels. Other then that nice work mate

Hi mate great video. Just one question, when you sand down the scratches, it removes material. How do you stop it from looking bumpy? Do you ever weld or filler over really deep curb damage and then sand down? Thanks would love to know

[gerardr]

Nice job. I thought there was silver paint under the clear coat. Is it really just pure metal?

[kianward]

mint stunning i would be delighted handed back them rims on my car

[stevefacey]

Great Video Thanks - Do you also lightly sand the black paintwork in order for the lacquer coat to key

[tiddysprinklez]

How much material do you actually take off the wheel going to spin the same is it going to look like it's not as deep on one side is it going to show the fact that one side higher than the other

Is there a way to refresh the black trims in diamonds mags? I have GTI mags and I am thinking to remove curbs and refresh the chrome, but I’d like to also refresh the black trims, the paint is a bit faded. Will gray scotch-brite and gloss lacquer will refresh it?

Thanks

Nice work, im fixing my Volvo BOR 19 inch rims and I wonder one thing, do you have to put clear coat on the brushed faces?🤔 I don't think the oem Volvo rims have it on the brushed surface 🤔 could be wrong

[wheelsone]

Subbed! What are you using for a wheel stand to hold the rim while you're working on it?
Been at this for 16 years and love to see new techs and how they do a repair. I'm always trying to learn new ideas, tricks and knowledge to get better at the wheel repair trade. I appreciate your videos and hopefully will be joining and contributing to the wheel repair video community soon. You're the only one so far, can't wait to see it grow.

Nice work. ....can i use a d.a sander or rotary is better? I have both

[robibbotson]

Great video, I don’t have a rotary polisher but have a da, can this be used instead? Cheers

[MM-ldyu]

I like the video, thanx. What I am wondering is how you get the tire "loose" from the rim so you have more space for sanding the rim. Removing only the air will probably not help ;-)

[wheelsone]

Any videos in the works for a fade or blend in wheel repair on a matte/satin finish wheel (Audi or ?) and any videos on repairs on 2 tone wheels with damage on both face and insert?
Appreciate the videos.

[Jesusisnotwhite]

How can you replicate the fine line groove from the machining?

[coinparadise]

Great project i really enjoyed it, and i know that your next project will also be greater

[Irfan-orsd]

Can you please do a video on mixing paint

[MrFreestyler]

Seen in a few videos from you now, dont you sheet customers cars when you are spraying? paint particles blown around in the air have just gone and rested all over the very car you are sorting in the garage lol

[christopherbutts]

Would it be easier with a smaller sander
