Thought I would post this video I put together of one of the services that I offer my customers...
Have you ever had an encounter with the curb on your nice alloy wheels? Only to have the edge of your wheel chewed up gauged. So for my clients I have this service to offer......
The "Wheel Lathe" which enables us to repair the wheel with out removing it from the vehicle or dismounting it from the tire. The alternative is replacement which can be costly, and is not necessary for this type of cosmetic damage.

Thanks Jaggyx.....Generally a service like this can run a customer about $150.00 dollars per wheel for a clean repair.
Have a great day!

Thank you for the call today regarding your Jaguar's wheels.....I would be more than happy to take care of the curb rash for you, as for the change in color the best bet would be to powdercoat as we discussed. I just spoke to my buddy Bill at First Place Powder Coating give him a call and tell him I referred you.....he does some great work out there in Banning.

Unfortunately the gentleman that I work with who invented and patented this Wheel Lathe asked me to hide it from the public on my Youtube channel

I'm good Dave, I had already watched the video a few times when you first posted it back in the summer.
Odd that your colleague doesn't want the free publicity that could have been generated for his patented machine.
Still, his wishes must be respected.
If you get to work on Jeff's car please post up, in the usual manner. LOL
