Has anyone found a long term solution for refurbing 355 wheels?
Ive had mine done three times now with different processes and all blister back withing 6-12 months apart from the stove enamelling which was a bit "chunky".
Surely there must be someone out there that can refurb magnsium wheels thats finish will last.

Anyone recommend someone they've had good results with?

Cheers

Had my 355 wheels refurbished by Pristine Wheels, that was about 2 1/2 years ago, still looking great.

Can't remember the cost but do remember when they were told the wheels were magnesium the refurb cost was around double that of an aluminium wheel.

Were your wheels badly blistering from oxidisation or kerb damage?
Mine werent bad but I was swayed to have them refurbed and now stuck in a loop were they constantly blister.

There was no kerb damage, just very small blisters and what looked like small veins below the paint.

One thing I 'think' I remember was Pristine Wheels told me there would be no warranty on the work done!

Still very happy with mine though.
