Just been watching Wheeler Dealers where Ed, the mechanic, restored some alloys using his angle grinder and some kind of attachment to get rid of the crap off them.
Does anyone have any ideas what attachments would be used to clean then buff them? And where to get them from?
thanks Millan
They'd also need repainting. I watched a pair of episodes on the MK1 Golf the other day, a car I actually know a small amount about. To say it was technically inaccurate was a bit of an understatement.
Alloy wheels are best powder coated. Go and pay a man to blast and powder coat them, expect around £25-£30 a wheel. It's not possible to spray most alloy wheels properly given their shape.
The message from "Doki" contains these words:
It's like most things on the media - it may have started off as reasonable, but once it's been filtered through the brains of media types it's no longer fit for anything but holding Jade Goodie's ears apart.
I still can't get over them paying £1500 for a recon Porsche gearbox when a £30 part had failed.
