    Good Wheel refurbishment company based North West

    Just for info, I have just had my wheels refurbished by a company based in the Wirral, Merseyside.
    They colour matched an original un-used Williams wheel that I have and got the colour spot on, so this maybe useful for others based in the North West.

    Can you take a picture of the new alloy 'side by side' against a single refurbed one to show people the finished article.

    It will have to wait until I'm next in the loft Northy. The "New" wheel is back in its box in the roof.
    The problem with the Gold colour is that there are different shades that speedline used. The guy at the "Wheel deal" made up some of the Akzo Nobel R9312 and it was very different to the gold on the "New" wheel that I have.

    if matching the paint to the original wheel that I have is Custom, then yes 😉
    The Akzo Nobel colour was nothing like the original wheel so wouldnt have used it.
