Set about refurbing the alloy wheels yesterday and today.

Here's what they looked like before on all 4 corners...


Kerb'd to hell from the previous owner.

Got some sanding paper , tub of Bodyalu , primer and gloss black. The first wheel took 7 hours to sand down the Bodyalu as i put way to much on. Sanded down the wheel with 240 sand paper to remove all the crap from the wheels and also sanding the outer rim to smooth out the bumps.



Applying the bodyalu , messy stuff !



Looks like utter crap but patience for it to cure and then attack it with 400 grit paper. Dont have any pics of this ( Sorry )

Primed , Sprayed in gloss black and heres the results:



First time with this , couple of you with noticed i missed alittle paint around the rim but who looks between the wheel and alloy

Looks better than this :




3 more to go...
