After realising it was getting too expensive paying someone else my hard earned money to refurbish my alloy wheels, I decided to fix this myself and also make a tutorial showing how I repaired the whole damage to show the process I used to get these battered, scratched, and kerbed diamond cut alloy wheels back to it's former glory.

Remember, the key to having a perfect refurbished alloy wheel is to be very patient. Take your time and you would smile at the end. I hope you enjoy the video and hopefully you feel inspired to try this yourself.
