Painted Alloy Wheels From Diamond Alloys Make This Mini Look Amazing

6Our paint technicians are highly skilled and can easily paint your alloys in any shade you like. This week we have been particularly pleased with these MINI alloy wheels which have just been finished by the Diamond Alloys refurb team.

 

At Diamond alloys, we take extra care of your wheels to make sure you will have the finish you want! Once your wheels have arrived at our London Refurbishment Centre, our skilled technicians remove the tyres using a specialist machine. All wheels are carefully checked by a technician in case there is a crack or buckle damage, both of which can be repaired by Diamond Alloys. After inspection they are placed in the Aquablast machine which removes dirt and grease and cleans the wheel surface. All wheels go into our oven to make sure no air is trapped within the alloy. We also ensure all painted wheels have a powder coat applied, which can be in your chosen colour; some alloy wheel repair companies do not apply a powder coat but we believe the coating helps achieve the best results!

 

Take a look at the pictures below which show some of the different stages the Mini wheels went through to get this beautiful glossy finished result.

When the alloy wheels reach the final stage of their refurbishment they pass through quality control where our technicians check they meet our high standards of finish. Then tyres are ready to be re-fitted, inflated to the correct pressure and re balanced, which is a FREE service included in the price we quote!

 

We are very pleased with the black finish on the alloy wheels which perfectly match with the front bonnet stripe on the bodywork of the Mini. If you like this black finish and looking for something similar, call us on 0845 370 8881 now!

 

BMW M5’s Alloys refurbished at Diamond Alloys

Check out these gorgeous 17 inch BMW M5 alloy wheels which we have just finished refurbishing at Diamond Alloys.

 

Our client wanted a finish that resembled metal so we recommended a shadow chrome alloy wheel finish would be his best option. This painted finish allows our technicians to repair any damage caused by kerbing or scuffing wheels while parking ensuring the wheel has a beautiful flat surface to work from.

 

The ground coat that we apply is important because the colour of the base determines the obtained shadow chrome effect. If the base is dark; for example black, dark blue or dark grey you will obtain a dark chrome effect. If the base is a light colour; like white, grey or silver, you will achieve a lighter shadow chrome effect. A satin or gloss finish can also be applied to the shadow chrome also achieving a different result.

 

Shadow Chrome is fast becoming one of our most popular alloy wheel repair finish. If you want more details, simply call us on 0845 370 8881 or email us direct.

Powder coating at Diamond Alloys

Powder coating is the ultimate choice for car owners who want the best finish for the alloys on their performance cars.

 

At Diamond Alloys, we use a powder coat base technique before painting the final colour to the alloy wheels which helps achieve the designed finish, which could be a glossy or matte effect. It also helps make a great base before applying special effects like glitter.

 

Our latest customer was looking for a new look for his Maserati and our skilled technicians are always happy to meet our customer’s requirements by applying a powder coat before painting.

 

Powder coating is a better finish than just painting a wheel as it gives a uniform layer to start from providing a smoother finished result. For this reason we apply a powder coat finish to all our painted wheels.

 

At Diamond Alloys, we use a powder coating process starts by cleaning the alloys through a specialist machine called a Acquablast machine which removes dirt and grease. If the wheel has a lot of corrosion we also put the alloy into an acid bath before applying the powder coat which will help achieve the best results. Then, the powder coating process is applied and the alloys baked in a specialist oven. Take a look at the pictures below which shows the wheels just after they have been powder coated.

When you see these Maserati alloy wheels below, you will understand why our customer was so pleased with his refurbished alloys.

We recommend applying powder coating to alloys not only for a stunning finish but also because it is more durable. This is especially beneficial in winter times when the wheels need more protection against the elements.

 

This process can be applied to any colour or finish. Does your car need a new look? Simply call us on 0845 370 8881 and we will be happy to give you a quote!
