I want to get some Alloy Wheels cleaned up and repainted. I know of several places which just refinish the front surface. I would prefer to have them completely stripped, acid cleaned [or whatever they use] and painted. Maybe my OCD is getting the better of me. Also I dont want them to be silver - I'm thinking Dark Grey. Anyway if anyone wants to recommend a North West based business then please fire away.

Thanks

I've seen several positive comments about http://www.nationalalloys.co.uk in Widnes.

I don't know the nature of the deal, but people from Pro-Clean, Prescot, who were also highly rated, are there too.

Another recommendation for National in Widnes, only complaint I've heard was that wheels weren’t balanced after refurbed (a friends fillings were a tad loose after driving his unbalanced RS4 home!)

I need two alloys repairing after hitting a huge pothole near Wetherall in cumbria last thursday. I've ended up buying two brand new OZ rims for my Clio 172 but could do with the damaged rims fixing then stick a pair of track tyres on them for track days.
