Alloy Repair?



  Clio 182
Does anyone think i can get this repaired? Are there any touch up sticks for this type of wheel?

There is no touch up available from Renault, but go to your local paint supplier and get a small pot made up, brush paint it on with a artists paint brush and use the same technique.

Ixell paint colour code is 205-110

Ideally after touching up the damage as above you should then wet sand the painted area after the paint has cured and polish.

Or if you can get some made up in a can you can DIY repair it your self, using this guide

Other wise its a job for chips away if you dont want to DIY

unless you have £30K's worth of powder coating equipment, it won't be any use to you

we've had the Ixcel 205-110 made into a powdercoat

How does it look next to a factory finish wheel when applied - would getting one wheel done look out of place?

r-jay, thats what we're testing at the moment, it HAS to be 100% perfect IMO, so i'll let you all know and post pictures when i have the finished wheel

(i might even offer a prize to the person who can guess which one is refurbed!!!)
