Hi All,

Thinking of refurbishing the car alloys (as they are looking a bit 'tyred'- boom boom). Was going to do a rattle-can DIY job, but have been advised that the results will be dire & not last long.
Sooooooo... can anyone recommend an alloy wheel refurbisher who will do a proper job, not too far from Gloucestershire.

Many thanks.

I used these guys:

Specifically the Leeds branch.

They resprayed my alloys and they look absolutely cracking. While painted instead of polished sounds like it might look rubbish they look the same and now will not corrode.

If you can stretch to getting your motor to the nearest brach to you I would do so.

There's one in Tewkesbury mate. Just on the old army base. I'll find the name and get back to you, but from people I know who've used them they come recommended.
