2. Stages of professional wheel finishing

A proper finishing process involves several detailed steps to ensure a flawless result:

Initial inspection and cleaning
Wheels are inspected for cracks, bends, or other damage that must be repaired. They are then thoroughly cleaned of dirt, grease, and brake dust to ensure the new finish adheres correctly.

Surface preparation
The original coating is removed using chemical strippers or blasting. The wheels are sanded to remove scratches and create a smooth surface for optimal adhesion.

Damage repair
If needed, cracks are welded and bends corrected using professional techniques. This ensures structural strength before applying the new finish.

Custom finishing
Several methods are available depending on the desired effect:

• Powder coating – A durable, versatile option with a wide color palette in matte, gloss, or satin finishes.

• Special painting – Ideal for complex designs, multi-color effects, or metallic/pearl finishes.

• Diamond cutting – Produces mirror-smooth surfaces by machining away a thin layer of metal with precision.

• Polishing – A classic method for a bright, reflective look.

Final curing and detailing
The wheels are baked to ensure the finish bonds securely and achieves long-lasting durability. Polishing and detailing provide the final shine.

Reinstallation
Once complete, wheels are reinstalled on the car and balanced for smooth, safe driving.
