I've noticed that two of my wheels are starting to look a bit shabby due to corrosion. Having done some googling and phoning I’m getting quotes of circa £100 for a diamond refurb (per wheel) with a turnaround of about 5 days. The other option that has been mentioned is getting all...

hi, I searched the forum and could not find what I was looking for. Does anyone have experience with designo magno paint care and recommend any specific products? I have seen Drbeasleys, and swissvax, but obviously these are not cheap and just wanted to hear others perspectives on these...

Hi Guys, After some touch up paint for my wheels. I have found the name, Himalaya grey but the paint code comes out at 7-756 or 756 or 7756. Any way to find which is correct?

Has anyone used the Chipex paint touch up kits? At £49.95 (no doubt plus postage) it seems a tad expensive. The video they show does not entirely convince me.
