Hi
As per the title I am looking to get a set of alloys refurbished.

I am looking for a full refurbishment where the whole wheel is dipped and painted making the whole wheel like new; as opposed to a 'smart' repair where just the face of the wheel is refurbished.

The wheels are off the car so I will happily take them to a suitable company.
I am based in Walton on Thames, Surrey so would be keen to hear any recommendations in the area.

Thanks

I have tried one place in West Byfleet but was very disappointed. In the end I sent them to Lepsons as was extremely impressed, but you've got to get them to Gillingham - or use Exel Wheels who will collect them for you and take them to Lepsons.

A little way from you, but can highly recommend The Autowerks in Slough: http://www.the-autowerks.com/ (so about 30 mins from you I guess?)

Failing that, Lepsons all the way!

Hi
Thanks for the replies.

Slough is not too far so will possibly try them.

There is a place called Motorwise in Brentford, I know they offer a service where you drop the wheels to them and they send them of for refurb. I will investigate what company they use and take it from there.

Cheers

Any more up-to-date recommendations for Alloy wheel refurbishment? My favourite local bodyshop (Denmark Coachworks in Egham) doesn't do wheels but recommended a place called spit and polish in Kent who do a lot of trade work. I'm not trade and it's just 2 wheels that need doing as they are losing air. I have seen good reviews on Google about Elite Wheels and Tyres in Reading (I work in Reading) but this if for a family member's car and ideally I'd like to find somewhere close to M25 J13.

Any ideas?

If you want them done properly its Lepsons all the way or ring Chris at Exel wheels and he provides a door to door service (Lepsons still do the work). They are very good and come highly recommended.

Possibly a bit far away but I've used these guys and they were good although took a little longer than they quoted (a good sign of being busy I guess).
