If you want a cheap job then follow this. The reason you spend a lot with a professional is 1) the entire wheel back & front will be sand blasted, 2) all blemishes removed, 3) filled as required, 4) powder coated several times & baked hard, 5) several coats of heavy duty lacquer. You always get what you pay for.

People trying to chime in by adding their own backhand compliments and slidding them criticism in, we see you, you ain't slick. This dude did a good job and you know what? it didn't require painting, just sprayed clear to protect and that's it!
@CatacombKidd
@CatacombKidd 5 лет назад
That’s all well and good. I suppose I’ll be one of them and add a comment that you might find slighted and back handed, but will only help other people trying this... He never cleaned the surface before painting. Not to mention, just before the scuffing, he used a polishing compound. That stuff sticks around a long while, and paint isn’t going to adhere well to it. Acetone, mineral spirits, even rubbing alcohol. Just oils from your hands alone can contaminate a paint job. Have to clean it before applying paint. Looks decent now, but unfortunately, his clear is going to be chipping and peeling in no time at all. Maybe he did but didn’t show it, or said he did, and I didn’t catch it...

Superb video as I’ve never seen any wheel refurb company in Ireland get them back to factory even when they charge €150 a wheel. Hence I was able to preserve the spoke on 20 inch 759i Bmw G30 wheel and just use your technique on the section that was damaged. I ended up using 3000 wet sanding and the finish was almost too polished like an E46 M3 19 inch diamond cut from factory. Thanks so much for this. Best solution out there

I used to do this as a profession, good tips on a DIY repair, these wheels originally were a matt finish, to remove that shiny line between the old lacquer and new repair, mask off the coloured section around where you have polished, give it a light scotching with the grey scotch bright and spray a light Layer of 94 silver until the line disappears, then to the untrained eye after you lacquer you really won't be able to tell. These were the best wheels to work on

@bostonacoustic7
@bostonacoustic7 5 лет назад
I’d suggest that you use wax and grease remover to clean the wheel after scotch brite. I paint diamond cut wheels almost every day and will say that this process doesn’t work every time. This process is dependent on the depth of the scuff and the location. If a scuff requires sanding that is going to pull the finish up, it’ll show after you polish the sanded area. I like to clean wheel, sand, scotch brite, clean, card/tape, tack cloth, dust coat with a non-metallic on polished finishes, then clear coat. I’d suggest using a blender after clear coat to.
@MauriceNL1
@MauriceNL1 Год назад
Is Brake cleaner also good as a degreaser before clear coat?
@JaredBeaucage
@JaredBeaucage 3 месяца назад
Could you just put clear coat ontop of the scuff for a temporary solution
@bostonacoustic7
@bostonacoustic7 3 месяца назад
@JaredBeaucage if temporary solution being that, you're just looking to seal and protect the substrate (aluminum alloy) from the outside elements in hopes of preventing corrosion, then the answer is technically, yes. However, you still will have to put a little bit of elbow grease into it and get your hands dirty unless you wear gloves, of course. 😉 You'll want to create a little cut in the substrate by lightly wet or dry sanding with a 320 or 400 grit sandpaper around the damaged area so that the clear coat has something to stick to. Thoroughly clean the area with a solvent like paint thinner, lacquer thinner, acetone, prep all, or even alcohol. Let dry, then apply 2-3 coats of clear coat following the manufacturer's instructions for time allowed to flash between each coat.
@bostonacoustic7
@bostonacoustic7 3 месяца назад
@JaredBeaucage BTW if you do not sand beforehand, the clear coat will inevitably fail and wind up peeling away.

good technique and lots of patience on display here. probably looking at 3 or 4 hrs work depending on depth of abrasions.

This is a superb demo, articulate and clear without any stupid music or the history of how the wheel got scuffed!!!!!! Just two things please, can i not just use my DA sander instead of a drill? and I struggle to find such high grit discs, they all tend to only go up to 240. I currently have a 2010 Golf match where the diamond faces have tarnished and also a 2012 Nissan Quashqai, again with corroded faces. Thanks very much, really is one of the best videos I have seen

When you've used the 180 grit, can you go directly to 1000/ 2000 wet grit if enough of the scuff has been removed or do you need to go thtrough the grades of grit sandpaper to get the desired results? Great video by the way; looking forward to doing this on my Audi. Top man. Legend.

@@andygranatelli8809 Is 180 grit rougher than the 1k/ 2k grit? I'm guessing it is since you can use water on the latter to smooth fine scratches out. Correct me if I'm wrong; I'm a complete novice

@andygranatelli8809 4 года назад
Jason Millanaise - Yes, the higher the number, the finer the sandpaper. It seems like a lot of steps but it’s worth it to go up the line. When you get to 1000 and 2000 grit, you almost always wet sand.

looks good, worth baring in mind as I have been window shopping for an audi a3 preferably with the same rotor wheels fitted and have yet to see one with an unmarked set and these wheels dont look as good when powder coated a single colour. It helps on these particular wheels that the machine polished parts sit out prominent from the painted parts so as to avoid damaging the painted bits.

Great video as always, I have to do all 4 of the same wheel on my Mrs car as she just loves kerbs😮. Is there an average time per wheel this would take? I appreciate the amount of damage per wheel will vary. I am wondering how many hours for all 4 wheels before I start? Thanks

Good effort mate you can buy that same clear as 2k with a hardner for an even longer lasting bit of protection and glossy shine top job

What about if its more then a scuff /scratches, like some deep cut can body filler can be used? Very nicely done video.

Great video. I've got 4 wheels to do! I know not much was sanded off but would it be enough to require the wheel to be balanced again?

Love this vid because I have the same rims(wheels) and want to get mine done as well. I have really minor scratches on them and just want to touch them up. I was going to get them done at a shop but then it was going to cost alot so I decided to see if any videos on here that are like my wheels, and here I am lol. Not only will this save me money but i also dont mind doing the labour work and knowing that i can do it just like how you showed is perfect. I was just wondering, how many coats did you use for the clear coat? and roughly how long did it take to do the one tire? anyways thanks for this video, will help me alot.........

Could you just do the curbed rims to the polished stage with the rotor with-ought lacquering over?

I just paid a hefty price to have my 2019 Audi 3 rims repaired, but it was worth it. Mad4Motors, please tell us that you use a respirator while applying clear coat! Love the accent and your video

Can you use a regular sandpaper instead of placing it in the buffing machine? Like the one you did in your previous video. Thanks for answering

For small edge such as that wheel edge and unable or unwilling to remove the tire, might I suggest heading over to the "ladies department" and getting a fingernail salon acrylic drill that comes with hundreds of sanding pieces? The acrylic fingernail drill head top is bare so there is nothing to sand the tire. Just an idea if one doesn't want to damage their tires, not sure how time consuming, but I do know the more powerful nail drills have more than enough umph (amps) to get the job done. Also, these drills are used for dog grooming which may or may not be more powerful. Playing cards can be kind of expensive, but paper index cards are not. They are also a tad longer than playing cards. Course when I get around to this, I have an old, thick, clear plastic shower curtain I will place over tire, tuck edges of curtain under tire to hold it in place then cut a hole out of it about an inch smaller than wheel (rim) and then tuck hole edge into where you placed the cards with a small $1, 1-3in plastic putty scrapper. Reusable and less time consuming. Again love that accent =)
