Just tried doing mine, perhaps it is because i am a weak girl added to the fact that i should have used fresh sand paper more frequently but it has taken me bloody ages to do one wheel. In the process of priming it now. It is a great guide tho!! lol

Do I really need to leave 24 hours between each sets of primer, paint and laqouring?

Also, is the £50 price set for 1 wheel or all 4 wheels?

Great guide,
I dont know if this is of any help to anyone but i found it quite a useful little guide for just a small scuff repair.

Gonna give this guide a go when i get paid, sure the £50 is the rough price should cost for all 4, if it was £50 a wheel you may aswell get it done professionally...

Not sure whats the best products to use in that price brackets though, when im getting prices its coming to around £70-£80 and thats from Halfords?

I've also got to refurb up mine there looking tacky and weren't done great when I got them, does anyone know if you can deflate the tyres and get them off the alloy easily once their flat? As Id prefer to take them off and refurb them that way...cheers
