What is wheel refinish?
A full refinish of a wheel, from stripping and repairing to a fresh coat in the colour you choose.
A wheel refinish restores the whole wheel rather than one damaged spot. The tyre is removed, the wheel stripped back, corrosion and damage repaired, then the wheel is primed and painted or powder coated. It is also the way to change wheel colour.
Signs you need it
- Peeling or bubbling paint

Why it matters
Cosmetic and protective; it can make an older car look much newer.
