Have you used them before? If so, what type of alloy finish was it? Just silver? The reason I'm asking is because I need my alloys refurbished but they are gold in colour. I don't mind paying extra if I know for sure if they will come out exactly if not better than new!

Cheers

I work in the motor trade and he has done many sets for me. Top finish. Dunno about gold though, I've never had gold wheels to do before, there usually silver then laquered. I can ask him tomorrow if you want.

I just spoke to him just now. He can do gold but needs to see the wheels to try and match the colour. Normal turnaround is 3 to 4 days. They can be powder coated etc but this isn't a very good finish so he flattens/paints/laquers for a top job. Best idea is to go in and see him and discuss what he can do with them. It is hard to repair badly damaged wheels. I've never had a bad job from him.

There's loads of garages down South Street, which one is it? Where is it near to? Is that the garage name?

Hello Gordon,

He has a garage and bodyshop business. I'm sure he's next to a petrol station but I canny mind which one.
