How was the family xmas???

Sorry about the alloy wheel, man.

Refurb progress - tyres and valves all off... but only got 1 wheel sanded down so far. Time-consuming job... gonna enquire about shot-blasting tomorrow.

Cooooool

Are you filling gouges or just sanding small nicks smooth?? Mines definitely a filler job, not too expensive, just a pain in the arse! :(

Matey, I've done alloy repairs before.... EASY job. Dremel and "plastic metal" putty required as well as matching alloy colour and lacquer (Halfords aerosols...). Cut out a 'key hole' and fill. Wait for set and dremel it to shape. Mask small area to blend in colour. Mask slightly larger area to blend over lacquer.
