Does anyone know of any alloy wheel refurbishment shops in Morayshire or Scotland in general?
All the companies I've tried so far are based south of the border.

Refurb or powder coat? If powdercoating then PPS Glassfibre in Inverurie is the best place. (01467) 621907

Thanks t t. I think, however, that the wheels really nead a full sand blast, coat and re-laquer. I'm not sure if powder-coating will do the trick. Does it remove corrosion and small kerbing nicks?

think they'll be blasted before powder coating - it'll remove corrosion and small nicks but not gouges. Phone them up and ask - if they can't help they'll know someone who can

Thank you t-t for your advice. I spoke to PPS and they sound like they do a great job unfortunately they need the wheels for a week. I eventually found "chips away" and they'll do all four wheels here for a reasonable price. I'll keep you updated on the job they do.
