Andrew (Stats007) refurbished the C43's 18" Monoblocks 11 yesterday.

He polished the rims and they look great, took him 6 Hours. It really is a pleasure to see someone take so much pride in there work. Andrew the perfectionist.

Highly recommended.
 
I'd be interested in pics/price/contact details, I'm in Laleham and wouldn't mind mine being done.
 
Glad you like them, Peter!

After a chat Peter decided to go for a satin polish with no lacquer as the car is kept immaculate anyway. There was only minor kerb damage to deal with but each wheel took longer than normal as once the paint and powdercoat has been removed it was evident that the shot-blasting from the previous refurb was over-zealous and had left a fair amount of pitting.

Centre caps and faces also got a machine polish and all sealed with Poorboy's Wheel Sealant:

I have a few wheels that need doing too. Can you go up to 20" on your machine Andrew?
 
Price you must discuss with Andrew. Thanks Andrew for the photo album.

Peter has been a long-standing member of this forum and the MBOC so received an appropriate discount.

PM me as until my website is setup I've not made any 'official' announcement on discounts.

I think so - however 19" is the largest I've done so far.
 
is it whole wheel refurbs that you do? What process do you use?

What a clean and nicely kept car.

Still 6 hours work for the refurb, they must be looking super clean, that's a lot of elbow grease and a thorough job by the sounds of it. I know who I'll be talking to when I need my next set done.
 
The wheels look really nice, Excellent job stats007

EDIT: oh and very nice car C43AMG looks immaculate

I was interested in how much you paid, I appreciate quotes/prices will vary accordingly.
 
To steel a phrase from Roy Walker: Mmm, nice wheels!!

They do look the business. The car looks incredible too.

Well done both.

I do both - mobile refurbishment is the face of the wheel.

They do look nice.

Good job there stats.

Have you made Peter an offer yet?! ;)

Mobile service is at the customer's address - full strip and powder coat takes a week and I can either store the car or take delivery of wheels.
 
A couple of examples:

Wheels dropped off by another member on a saturday, collected the following weekend. Dip, strip, powder coat and painted:
