Default Getting my wheel fixed monday...

Went to the car wash the other day and they ended up scratching up my rim... not to happy. But they paying for it so thats pretty cool. I was just curious, I've seen the results before, but how do they go about refurbishing it?

Default First question ...

why in the world would you go to a carwash - you're looking for trouble if you do anything other than wash by hand. There are lots of posts about refinishing wheels - a good shop can make the repair completely undetectable.
