Interview with Diamond Alloys New Tyre Fitter, Andrei

Leave a reply

1. What do you do at Diamond Alloys?
I am a Tyre Fitter ad Diamond Alloys. I remove the wheel and check for any damage and then I prepare the wheels for refurbishment. Once the alloy wheels have been refurbished I prepare them ready to be fitted back and rebalanced. This is all part of the service at Diamond Alloys and included in the price (we don’t have hidden costs!)

diamond-alloys-new-tyre-fitter-andrei- 2. What did you do before?
I worked as a mechanic and tyre fitter.

3. Why did you decide to work into the motor industry?
I used to have my own garage, I enjoyed it very much but wanted to be part of a bigger team but still wanted to work in the automotive industry.

4. What’s the best part of your job?
Diamond Alloys is a great place to work and I enjoy the job itself! It’s great to be surrounded by a great group of lads.

5. If you could drive any car, what would it be, where would you drive it and who would be sitting next to you?
I would choose a Ferrari or a BMW for a solo trip in Europe.

6. Why should customers tyres not be replaced on their own?
If they have the right equipment and know what they are doing it is fine to do yourself, otherwise I would recommend you let us do the work for you. As I said, at Diamond Alloys, we offer to our customers removal, refitting and balancing for FREE!

7. What would you recommend to keep tyres in good condition?
I would suggest they check their tyres every 5000 miles and they make sure the air pressure is correct. Low tyre pressure is, fortunately, easy to fix, and we’ll give you a free pressure check every time you book a refurbishment with us.

8. How often should tyres be topped up with air?
Before and after every long journey.

9. What gives you job satisfaction?
When a customer is happy with their refurbished wheels.

When you own a prestigious Marque like Bentley it stands to reason you want to care for it and maintain its beauty. However, damage to alloys wheels can easily happen when parking or when driving over potholes. The good news is you don’t have to buy new every time damage occurs as a simple refurbishment can bring new life back to scuffed rims ensuring the cars beauty is restored.

London based alloy wheel specialist Diamond Alloys regularly cares for alloy wheels from top Marques. Take a look at these Bentley alloy wheels and see how amazing they look after their refurbishment. Our client wanted to have the alloy inserts painted a stunning black gloss to match the cars body work, with a diamond cut face which really highlights the 7 spoke alloy design and makes the Bentley logo stand out beautifully.

Our technicians have many years of training and are highly skilled in the different processes involved to produce a quality finish like this. All wheels are powder coated for a great surface to work from. This helps cover and blemished for a great finished look.

Painted refurbishments at Diamond Alloys London

Leave a reply

At Diamond Alloys we get to see a wide variety of car makes and models. In addition we get to see a lot of wear and tear and damage on the rims!

Take a look at the before shots from this Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution SQ300 and you will see there is extensive kerbing damage, most probably caused by parking too close to kerbs, a very common sight here at Diamond Alloys. Damage like this can easily happen and devalue the look of your car, and with the prospect of high costs associated with replacing the alloys it is no wonder so many customers are choosing to repair and refurbish their wheels at Diamond Alloys.

We recommend you get all wheels repaired at the same time, this not only ensures they all look tip top and match but it also means they will wear evenly. These 18” alloys were given a great new look with a stunning black gloss painted finish. Our guys work hard to prep and clean the wheels carefully to ensure they are ready to be powder coated to a really smooth finish, essentially for a gloss finish.

If your alloys have seen better days, then get down to our London based alloy wheel repair centre and we can give you some great advice on how you can bring them back to life. If you decide to get all 4 wheels repaired at the same time we will give you a great discount too!

If you are prone to kerbing when parking on London’s streets, then we also highly recommend adding rim bands to your alloys. For a small additional cost these rim bands will help protect your alloys and potentially save you money in the long run! The come is a range of colours and can be fitted for free by our guys when your repair is finished.

Protect your rims with alloy wheel rim bands

Adding rim bands to your alloy wheels will help protect them from damage often caused by parking too close to kerbs. The added bonus is they look great too, adding a touch of colour which can tie in with the colour of your car.

Take a look at the standard painted alloy wheels which were just completed at London based refurbishment centre Diamond Alloys. The red rim bands make a striking contrast to the standard grey painted finish applied to the alloys.

Made from stretchy high strength silicone rubber, these rim protectors are tear resistant and fit snugly around alloy rims to protect against kerbing and damage often caused by potholes. These rim bands won’t damage your alloys and feature 5 gripping ribs to stop them slipping out while driving.

Black Gloss Alloys with a Diamond Cut Lip

Leave a reply

At the Diamond Alloys Refurbishment centre in London, we have a team of specialists on hand to be able to offer a wide range of services to enable you to get the exact look you want for your alloy wheels.

Painted black gloss is always a popular finish, and our latest customer decided this would be a great look to contrast against the colour of his car. To add a difference and extra styling, the customer also requested a Diamond cut lip. This finishing touch really sets off well against the black gloss for a truly stunning result.

Our technicians take exacting care and attention to the refurbishment, cleaning and rubbing back the alloy wheels to a smooth surface, removing any kerbing damage or scuffs. Once a smooth surface has been prepared, the alloys are powder coated and coloured before the edge of the alloy is Diamond Cut and a finishing gloss lacquer is applied.

If your alloys need a new look or if they have damage that is in need of repair, then give us a call on 0845 370 8881 or get a quick quote on line. If you don’t fancy a Diamond cut lip, then why not try some of our colourful rim bands, which will help protect your alloy rims too!
