Car alloys sustain damage when they are scraped or scratched, and they can also become corroded over time. This problem leads many people to ask: can alloy wheels be repaired? The answer is yes; car alloy wheel refurbishment is a service that restores an alloy wheel close to its original condition. Some mechanics also offer a specialist service called diamond cut alloy repair.

During a car wheel refurbishment, a strong acid strips the lacquer coating on the alloy. If there is any corrosion, the wheel is usually sandblasted.
