Diamond Cut Alloy Wheel Repairs Shrewsbury Telford & Shropshire

As mentioned above, any repair to diamond turned wheels requires a full refurbishment, the same process is carried out for all repairs as follows;

• The car is then lifted using our haudralic jack under the wheels & placed on axle stand(s)
• The damaged wheel(s) requiring repair is then removed
• The tyres then get removed from the alloy rim & marked up with rotation direction.
• They are placed in an acid tank to remove the paint, lacquer, imperfections and any contaminants.
• They are then washed & blasted to neutralise & remove any excess acid whilst also keying the alloy ready for paint
• If they are damaged, dented or badly kerbed the wheels are repaired by sanding, welding, filling or repairing any cracks or buckles
• The wheels are then baked before being powder coated with a primer & then painted the original colour (or one of your choice)
• After cooling down, they the go on a computer numerical control (CNC) machine and they are re-cut to remove the damage & achieve the correct finish
• The next process is to powder coat the lacquer and bake them further to cure the protective lacquer coating
• Finally the tyres are fitted, a new valve is also fitted and the wheels then get re-balanced & are ready to be refitted to the vehicle

With a full refurbishment being needed as well as the use of very expensive CNC lathe equipment also required, this is a specialist repair process, and costs are higher than a usual painted wheel repair.

Along with this, there are also other factors which will afect the cost, such as if welding is required due to the amount of alloy removed when the damage was caused.

Because of this, you can download our price guide which will give you an approximate idea of costs, or better still, either send in a photo of your damaged diamond cust alloy wheel, or pop into the car care centre for a written quote.

A relatively new finish such as those seen on some BMW M-Sport wheels, as well as aftermarket wheels is a tinted lacquer over diamond turned finish.

This is where a coloured tint is added to the lacquer to make it an opaque colour which still shows the brightness of the diamond cut finish through the coloured lacquer.

This is a very specialised finish which we may be able to achieve, but you will need to discuss this with us before we could inform you if it can be achived and what it would cost.
