Once we recieved a set of wheels we have to remove the tyres and t/l valves along with any centre trims, then remove the contamination and residue as much as possible. The wheels will be well steam cleaned with the correct chemical cleaners to suit the types of wheel, then sand , grit or bead blasted.

Then all the corrision will be removed until it is totally distinct. Then the wheel will go onto the lathe to be turned using the computer programme setting for what the alloy type is. Doing this takes off millimeters of fine layers of alloy from the wheel .
