In this video I'm showing the full process from start to finish of restoring a set of alloy wheels. Bought these original Honda rims in a very used condition and decided to refurbish myself. I also decided to change the colour from silver to a more sportier dark metallic grey which suits the colour of my car better.
I had never done this type of job before so don't think I'm an experienced person. I'm just a modeller who builds scaled cars out of model kits in 1/24 scale. The experience I gained throughout my modeling experience, like sanding and spraying, was adapted to refurbish these rims.
I have documented all the steps in order to help other people do similar jobs themselves too. I tried to be as clear as possible, but if you have any more questions or anything is not clear, feel free to leave a comment and ask.
Thank you for watching and feel free to subscribe to follow my modeling hobby too.
A Like would be very appreciated!

Thanks for your feedback. Colour is from a Honda Accord! Thought I would go for something different and darker than the original silver ☺️
This was amazing man you were working like a professional on these wheels I would have just sanded it and painted over and got done with it. You did it properly to 💯% perfection

Thank you sir ☺️ The initial plan when I bought them was just that, a simple repair with putty and then some coats of silver! But then I decided to challenge myself and see if I can get them a proper darker grey finish. Never did a similar job, but working on model cars gives you a basic idea of what needs to be done! Thanks again for checking out my video and leaving your feedback. That is very appreciated ☺️👍
Nice, and very detailed. Thanks for the video.
