Alloy wheel repair in Leyton

Lacquer that has turned white or started to lift means the finish is giving way, and the metal underneath is next. A photo gets you a price within 24 hours and a clear outline of the repair. Photos from Leyton are all we need to start.

Why the old finish comes off first

Once lacquer has lifted, it is tempting to paint over the patch. A coat laid on top of an old finish peels, because it only grips the damaged layer beneath it. Every wheel at Crown Road is stripped to bare metal first, so the new finish bonds to clean metal and the lacquer goes on over a sound base. The whole wheel is refinished to match, which leaves no patch edge to catch the eye. Corrosion that has crept under the lacquer comes off in the same strip.

Questions after the damage

How soon should a scraped wheel be looked at?
Soon after the lacquer breaks, because water and road salt then reach the metal and corrosion spreads under the finish. A small repair now beats a bigger job later. A photo will show what yours needs.
Can a photo show enough to price the repair?
For most damage it can, if you include the whole wheel and a close-up in good light. When a bend or a crack needs a closer look, the reply says so.
Is pothole damage always visible on the wheel?
Not always. A vibration, the car pulling to one side or a tyre losing pressure can point to a bend, so get it checked. Photos also help with any claim.
