Curbed Alloy - Patch up or full refurb?
After some advice from peeps who have had wheels repaired – patch up or full refurb?
Prestige Wheels came out this Friday and took one look and said he didn’t really want to try to patch up the damage . Something about my BM wheels...they have multi coats of paint/lacquer and as the damage has gone down to different layers I may be able to spot the repair. He suggest taking the alloy away and stripping it down in a chemical bath (?!) to get that even new finish. That sounds great, but will it look different from the other three? Or should I just try the patch up and hope the repair isnt noticable? Cheers.

Hi Tony, I need to get my wheels refurbed at some point too. I know you've previously recommended Lepsons, so would you advise I go to them, or lookup Pristine? Or are they both as good as each other?
