Wheel Refurb - Quick Reply's Needed

[C_WRX]

Not for me, but a friend, is looking to have his alloy wheels refurb'ed. Standard car/wheels that are used generally to bounce off the kerb to assist when parking along with some current flaking so need stripped and redone.

Looking for recommendations in ideally South Lanarkshire.

I know folk on here have used Chameleon Colour Coatings in Renfrew which is a bit of a trek but if they are well worth it in peoples opinion then I will pass on their details.

Did they do a decent enough job Baz? noticed them the last time I was on the Rd from Forth to Biggar.

The guy I've used in the past (Williams Powdercoating) in Falkirk isnt doing wheels anymore!!!!

Is anything ever perfect Gus? I'd say the job on mine was 95% or a little more. Happy enough with mine and the service was fine too. Close to me obviously so that is in their favour.

Never! 95%+ is good enough for me and Forth isnt a million miles away

My mate in work got his honda type r wheels done in newbridge at a company called hot wheels and they did a cracking job of them.

Have to agree with Barry on this one.

The guy on the Forth road provides a pretty good service and only took a couple of days to sort mine out.

Id give him 95% also. Not so much with the powder coating, more with the prep side of things. Mind you, my alloys were in some state beforehand!

I used Alloy finsihing at the address Kenny has given but that was to straighten two badly buckled wheels, they done a superb job of that but cant comment on there wheel coating but would think the attention to detail they had when fixing the two rota's that they would do a good job. I have also had a fair amount of parts, not wheels, powder coated at Chameleon and the job has always been very good. To be hosest i think it depends where you stay and how much you want to pay/travel.
