Alloy Wheel Colour Change

Post by ruudy » Mon Apr 24, 2017 12:11 pm

Hi All.

I want to get the colour on my alloys changed. Does anybody know of a company which does it to a high standard?

I am looking to get a satin bronze/dark gold colour finish. I know its a bit out there, but i fancy a change from black for the summer.

TIA

I'm guessing your Rotiforms are 2 or 3 piece so if it was me I'd use a company that has a lot of experience dealing with split rim wheels. Lepsons or Pristine are 2 companies in the UK that have a good reputation. I've used Pristine in the past and they were very good.

Thanks for the reply. You are right they are 2 piece if im not mistaken. Do any of the guys you mentioned have experience of doing coloured wheels?

Rimstock in Brum. Provided you don't mind taking your car into that hotspot of risk.
They manufacture and restore. Top company.

They both have standard colour sets but can do any colour I'm guessing like most wheel refurb companies who powdercoat.

Pristine do custom finishes too, for extra cost obviously. They did the matte bronze on my rotiforms.

Asked pristine a while ago and they are expensive. Try this company http://retrocoating.co.uk/ in Crewe who quoted me £70+ per wheel and you can choose ANY colour from the US based company Prismatic colours for an extra £60-80 if you dont like the range of standard colours
