Recover damaged disks at home
A very useful guide to the continuation of the post on how you can manually remove all the chips and damage to the surface of the alloy wheels. Believe me, you will be able to do it much cheaper than any tire service.
What we need:
1) chipped discs
2) then 2 component epoxy paste, its color is not so important.
But remember, if you paste red / green / gray, through the paint rather
total clearance, will need a primer (the same primer).
I have a white epoxy done without soil.
3) skin with an index of grain 300-400. And it does not hurt since the index 600 smaller ones.
4) masking tape, provided that this does not remove the rubber from the disc.
5) proper spray-paint and varnish. Spray Einszett Silber, color is very close to the factory.
You can also use silver spray Wurth. In this case, I paint from Wurth.
But if there is any difficulty in the selection of color, then it is better to appeal to colorists - they pick up.
Sandpaper (300-400) we clean scratches, remove the bumps.
Paste ribbon rubber
Take epoxy paste, mix A and B in equal proportions, put on irregularities,
carefully remove any excess paste.
Allowed to dry (the longer the better) I put the wheel for a few hours under the lights.
Firstly, because the epoxy dries quickly, and secondly better grab.
He was fascinated by the work of the next stage and missed photographing =)
In general grind fine sandpaper dried epoxy, alignment must be going smoothly,
including the touch, without flaws.
Then paint. I already have some experience in the painting of a spray. Once I engaged in automotive styling.
Balon shaken well, from a distance of 20-30cm paint, thin soft layers to avoid overflows
and noticeable transitions. Layer 2-3 is enough. Between each layer drying for about 30 minutes before painting desirable
humidify the room to not get dust on the freshly painted surface.
As the paint dries - varnish. Enough of 2 layers of varnish, with drying for half an hour.
You can also put the wheels under the lamp for a few hours.
After the final drying of the layers take very fine sandpaper and gently with water are passed
in places that are varnished to smooth the surface.
Still it is possible to polish the disc that was all one piece and beautiful :)
That's all.
