On the job refurb of another set of trashed diamond cut alloys. I had 4 sets of wheels to do on the day (I only refurb trade) and at the moment I am absolutely bombed out with nearly every type of Diamond cut wheel...If theres any specific type you would be interested in watching, please let me know..when i come accross it, ill stick the camera on.
I just bought a Citroen C3 MKII with these wheels, and they are a mess. Loads of curb rash and failed clear coat. I've watched a good few of your videos, so I feel confident having a go.
Can you let the alloy polished without clear coat ? Will it get corroded if you don't ? Or is this just for looks ?
عمل رائع يشرفني اني اكون تلميذ حضرتك وتحاتي لك من مصر
Can one do this with a orbital sander?
useful video but with one major flaw - you left the dust cap off the Tyre valve for the whole process, which is a pretty dusty process ! not good for the valve unfortunately
What is the cost of this?
do you need to worry about any clear coat on the wheel?
For bare aluminium you need DTM (direct to metal) clear coat. Otherwise any different one will peel off after a year or two
You can use use none DTM clear coat if you use adhesive promoter before
this is not the proper way to refurbish diamond cut wheels, you need a diamond cutting lathe to achieve that OEM polished face finish.
You obviously have no idea what inverted commas are used for you Dope
But in a van it’s a decent effort 😊
I always find comments like this weird. They’re not claiming it’s the same. It’s a different method that is significantly cheaper with similar result.
