Always Attention to Detail at Diamond Alloys

At Diamond Alloys we always make sure we apply attention to detail to every aspect of the alloy wheel refurbishment process.

This care and attention applies at every stage, so you can rest assured that our technicians take plenty of time prepping the wheels and rubbing them back for a sound surface to work from. This is just the start of the process, but an important one to ensure the finished result is smooth and stunning.

We offer a wide range of alloy wheel refurbishment services to achieve custom alloy wheels, a standard powder coat painted refurbishment or our most popular Diamond Cut alloy wheel refurbishment service.diamond-cut-banner-2019

We can repair one wheel at a time as required or the whole set of 4 alloy wheels in one go. Our trained alloy wheel technicians ensure a close a match as possible to your original alloy wheel, but for a perfect match we do recommend you have 4 wheels refurbished at the same time. The benefit of refurbishing a set of 4 alloy wheels is that the finish on all the alloy wheels will match exactly, so there will be no slight variation in colour match for paints or finish.

If you choose a Diamond Cut Refurbishment, a small layer of metal is cut away on our in house laithe, which will change the profile slightly and as a result not match your other alloy wheels exactly. This will be less obvious on wide spokes, like a 5 spoke wheel, but on wheels with many smaller spokes, the cut will be more noticeable due to the design of the alloy wheel. However, our alloy wheel technicians are highly skilled and using a diamond cut alloy wheel refurbishment machine is more accurate and will remove less metal than other cutting techniques.For a great diamond cut alloy repair wheel refurbishment trust Diamond Alloys!

Does Brake Dust Damage Your Alloy Wheels?

In short, YES. But how?

brake-dustBrake dust is caused by the abrasion between the brake discs and pads. This is perfectly normal, but if left on your alloy for an extended period of time it will start to corrode the metal which is a problem that should not be left unattended.

We recommend you wash your alloy wheels regularly; should the brake dust persist then we suggest you use a wheel cleaner which are designed to work on specific metals and alloys. Use an alloy or a nylon brush and work the corrosionsolution well into the brake dust; once lifted it can be washed away with lots of water.

If you notice that your alloy wheel has already started to corrode, then it is time to book it into a wheel repair specialist like Diamond Alloys. Even if the corrosion is quite bad we can still remove it with acid and give the alloy a fresh powder coat, re-spray and protective lacquer which will have your alloys looking as good as new.

rim-bandsWe also highly recommend rims bands which help protect your rims from kerbing damage which can damage the protective layer and allow water to seep underneath. These can be fitted at the end of your refurbishment for a small cost which alongside a refurbishment is a lot cheaper than buying new, especially if you take advantage of the Diamond Alloys 4 wheel discount.

Call us today on 0208 845 7788 and book your corroded alloy wheels in for an alloy wheel refurbishment.

Don’t Let Corrosion Ruin Your Alloy Wheels

corroded-alloy-wheelAs you will see on these images alloys wheels can easily sustain severe corrosion damage, which is not good news!

This type of corrosive damage is caused when the protective lacquer layer is compromised by kerbing or scuffing your rims which allows water to seep underneath making them corrode and look unsightly.

However, don’t worry, Diamond Alloys is here to help with problems like alloy wheel corrosion damage, so you’ll be pleased to hear that you don’t have to buy expensive new alloys! We have the skilled technicians to eradicate corrosion and give your alloys a newly finished look you’ll love.

Just take a look at these before and after images and we know you will be impressed by the transformation and finish we achieved.

Check out our Latest Diamond Refurbished Alloys Wheels

diamond-alloys-scruffed1-300x224We think that alloys wheels are a focal point to any car! However, it’s a sad fact that every day wear and tear will cause them to degrade, and it’s easy to get them scuffed or chipped when parking close to a pavement. This picture illustrates the kind of state many damaged alloy wheels usually look like when they arrive at our London Refurbishment Center.

img_3071-2smallAt Diamond Alloys we can offer a variety of alloy wheel repair and refurbishment techniques to bring your alloys back to life and looking as good as new. If you are looking for a standard silver finish, we recommend our powder coat process which completely covers the alloy wheel with a smooth surface ready for painting, offering loads of protection from the elements, particularly useful this time of year when the wetter weather sets in.

Alternatively, for alloy wheels with a little more design, we recommend our Diamond Cut service. A high quality repair service which can only be carried out on site, so beware of smart repair services who cannot offer a proper diamond cut repair service. This process cuts off a small layer of metal to remove the damage and can be offset with a painted power coat insert for a striking look for your alloy wheels.
