18" Titanium wheel refurb

[Rooster]

So i finally took the plunge and had my 18" Titanium Pack wheels refurbed, the front faces were not too bad, with some lacquer damage and inevitable corrosion " spiders" but the inner faces especially the rears had quite a bit of corrosion. The powder coating should be a more durable finish, and i went for a shade of Anthracite, will take a bit of getting used too as i try to find the car in a car park now!

Nice, just remember to keep them dry around the valves as they will collect water and bubble after a long time
Take them off one at a time and seal them with Poorboys Pink - job done

Bruce, they bubbled up quite nicely with the original finish !

Rooster, not what I mean but nice.
I meant if you don’t dry the wheels after a good wash then there is a chance the water will get in under the coating and start to corrode/bubble the paint.
A good sealant will keep them more than just a wash

Clean wheels are unfortunately a bit of an obsession with me

Apparently, brake dust is a pig to get out of white fabric!
