Rim Refinishing

All scratches, damage, and most cracks on a rim can be repaired. We use a specialized process to smooth away any damage on your wheel without the use of filler (unless the damage needs to be filled with an aluminum TIG weld).

Unless the wheel is polished, a base primer is applied to the wheel and baked.

The wheel is then sanded and smoothed out so that a color match can be done. We can match any color paint to your factory original   or aftermarket rim. Since wheel manufacturers generally do not release the color code of their wheels we professionally mix paint for each specific job.

When the paint has been applied and baked dry the wheel is then lightly sanded and inspected for imperfections before a final layer of paint is applied.

Your wheel is now ready for a top coat which is what makes the wheel glossy (or satin or matte depending). We use an industrial strength, durable, and long lasting clear powder top coat which is then baked onto your rim to provide a maximum strength wheel finish.

Our Repaired and Refinished wheels come with a 1 year limited guarantee from peeling and/or discoloration. (ask us for details)

The rim repair process takes about 24 hours but if you don't mind rushing us we can sometimes offer same day delivery if you contact us to make an appointment and if we receive your car and/or rims at 9am that day.

We try to be as flexible as possible when you are having your rim repaired with Wheel-Tech. We can accept your whole car or loose rims. We can even  put on the spare tire for you in order to leave a rim with us at no additional charge.

NOTE: If you are planing to have new tires put on your car consider having us put them on for you because we are very good at NOT scratching wheels when mounting new tires.
