There's a company in Liverpool called Proclean. They're the daddies. As mentioned though. Look in the Yellow Pages for somewhere more local

Has anyone had theirs done?

If so how much did it cost?

Oh and do you have before and after pictures?

i had my 10" revoloutions done about 15 years ago, the local polishing place skimmed the rims in a lathe to get rid of the worst of the curbing marks, then polished them. this cost £15 a rim


i had the centres stove enamelled at a local industrial place, this cost £10 a rim

as you can see this wasnt exactly cheap , even then, but at the time it was cheaper than buying new rims, and the wheels still dont look too bad fitted to my mates hillclimb car with the spare slicks on!

I have been looking and got quotes of around £45 a wheel, there is no way im paying that much!

Although just found out that a friend of a friend might be able to do it alot cheaper. :D
