Wheel blast

Post by 82 Lux »

I had a set of old toyota alloy wheels with a clear coat on them that was peeling and had them sandblasted. Got rid of the clear coat and gave the wheels a different coarse alloy look. With steelies you should be good to get them done and just repaint them to your colour. Have a look in the yellow pages under abrasive blasting.

I went the cheap option on my rims after I had them modified. Paint stripper and a 4" wire brush for an angle grinder. Works well but takes a while.
