Hello great video I was thinking of repairing my curb rash but was wondering will this throw off the balance of the wheel? Ne advice is helpful. Thanks again.

Brilliant, thanks!

As a Car Mechanic myself and one who did Tire-Jobs and more for a long time I need to make this recommendation: 1. Make your life much easier and get your tires to a Car Workshop so they can press down the Tire from your Rim... if so, you don't have to be that carefull to hit the Tire while sanding, also spraying the Rim afterwards is much easier and the Finish is much better since you can get deaper in the part where Tire and Rim hit each other. Afterwards you just have to fill the Tire with air again and normaly it just should pop up into old position ;) 2. After doing all this... also get to a Car Workshop or a Wheel company, to let your Wheels be balanced again... since you remove and also apply material to your Rims (Removing Aluminium and applying paint) they might be outbalance at least a slight amount. Especially on front wheels where your stearing is, you might find this out sooner or later. Also it's not this nice for the Rest of your car to have these vibrations cause your wheels are off balance. But without these, it's great job ;)

As someone that does this for a living day day out it’s good instructions very knowledgeable. The only goof up is using primer. If you notice most rims have 0 primer it’s not needed and is just a layer that can cause problems. As someone who’s been in auto body for 17 years trust me I know it sounds wrong but feather put your damage and paint right on the metal.

I take my wheels to the tire store to get them to break the bead, this greatly eases the entire process. Use red scotch brite pads to scuff up areas that does not need repairs . i use an orbital sander with 120 grit and that is all you need to repair the curb damages. Wet sand with 320 grit on a pad to remove any swirl marks. Use a large trash bag cut a hole and wrap the wheel, it takes a minute instead of using tape to mask around tires.
