rusty alloys
Hi all
I'm refurbing some alloys and have removed all the old paint, I was planing to leave the rims polished alloy with a coat of lacquer. But where
the old paint was chipped the alloys turned black, I’ve tried sanding it but its still visible. Can anyone recommend a machine shop that could cut the
rims back to good ally?

There's an alloy refurb/repair place in Melton Mobray so pretty close to you.
I had a TSW alloy repaired which had a buckled rim as they are old and they don't make the design anymore.
Don't have the number to hand but if google doesn't throw anything up I can get it tomorrow. I'm sure that's where I got it
from.
Here's the place Click Here

I used to be apathetic but now I just don't care.
