- Can this even be repaired? Well 3 Diamond cut repair companies said no! as it was too deep... the wheel was a write off. I decided to have a go to save the wheel and return the car to lease company with no penalties!
Let me know what you guys think!

When I saw the filler I thought he'll never make it match the rest of the wheel especially because its diamond cut, nearly choked on my coffee when you did. You are seriously talented and you're only using regular everyday equipment.
Whatching your content is a pleasure, thankyou.
Thanks for the sub and glad you enjoy my content. Plenty more coming
you can tell that part of the wheel is dull and not shinny like the rest.
What colour paint did you use to patch in?
That was a great finish 👍couldn’t even see any damage at the end 👍👍
It turned out well for a save 👍🏼
I feel like i should be paying to know this. Great job.
Haha ill do a fundraiser
Great job! Excellent result 👏
Thanks pal
that is bloody brilliant - great job
Thanks pal
Blooming heck! …I was saying to myself - that’s a shame flattened but you can see the repair …then you blended it in completely …brilliant! I’m now looking to see how you do a painted rim with a bit of a squared profile on the edge ….my fault for having 20” on a van!
I've done plenty of wheel repair vids mate check the playlist
Wouldn't have time do this myself but very therapeutic watching the expert😅
Glad to be of help
...thanks for this! i have this same wheel (VW eGolf Astana wheels)--- now i know how to repair all the curb rashes! 👍🏽
Glad to help!
Top work bud, pleasure to watch 👍
No problem
That was a job well done, I was amazed with the appearance, one would never be able to tell, overall excellent finish! Thanks👍🏻
Thanks for watching
@@cvrpov bless and thank you for sharing, it was a pleasure to watch and learn!
Best of regards 👍🏻

Great job I've got one like this so this is a very welcome how to.
Thanks for watching hope it helps with ur project
Great job I didn't think you was going to sort out that 1 it look so hard we'll done pal
Cheers Dale and thanks for watching
Beautiful job ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Brilliant repair
Great end result. Replicating Diamond Cut finish is difficult.
Perhaps use some playing cards to protect the tyre when sanding with power tools so rubber is not scuffed?
Yeah good tip I have done this myself
Amazing work and very talented
Thank you
Excellent indeed for the silver rims the filler you use.cheers.
Normal body filler on this one mate.. upol
@@cvrpov cheers mate Phil is my name great work.
Look forward to the new venture soon I hope
very clever, you used that bend contour line, for the blend line.
Yes
Great video. I know it's small filler area but i would avoid going over with water as it absorbs it and can blister up after time.
Make sure fully dry
@@cvrpov on so small filler area possible...
When your mixing lacquer on the job do you do a hot mix when you mix the lacquer so it goes off quicker
Great job 👏
Thanks man
Hi I noticed a similar damage on my alloy and was really sad until I saw your video giving me hope that it can be repaired. Well done 👍🏻
Just a quick question, will the wheel require balancing after repair since we are sanding and that may change the weight distribution.
I would get wheel rebalanced anyway. Even the kerb damage can effect it
Amazing job!!! 👏
Thanks for watching
Good job 👍
Very tidy job 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks 👍
Excellent work, like brand new. Do you know if it's possible to fill in the stone chip on the diamond cut rim if it only slightly dented the clear coat and then sand it down to level and polish? What clear coat do you use?
any 2k clear will be find and yes that should be possible
Great job well done 👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Great work 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks
Great stuff.
Thanks Denis
Great video and great work, maybe you could explain the steps you’re taking through out the video
Noted, thanks for watching
Outstanding.
Thanks
Nice, clean and close up. I needed that.
What paint did you use to match that aluminum?
I need a bottle of that ASAP!
Ford moondust silver is a good match to hide things
@@cvrpov AWESOME! Thank you for responding.
Diamond cut/machine face
wheel repair is a struggle for the curb rash shops here in Atlanta.
My competition is weak and because of your videos and input, I plan to be the man this spring.
Thank again.
@@INTIREMOBILETIRESHOP sorry for late reply but did you try it and was it a good match?
Hiya mate. Great finish btw. I’m a smart repairer of 17 yrs.. I take it you used solvent paint as you used wire wool to create the diamond cut marks ?? Also what did you use before the panel wipe on the tyre to get the dressing off. The tape stuck to it well considering it had dressing all over it. Cheers Paul.
Thinners on the tyre mate.. nothing works better. Solvent paint scheme yes
Nice. Love your videos buddy.
Thanks man
BRAVO
👊🏻👊🏻
I've never used a paint gun like that, but it looks like you had it set to release only a tiny amount of paint as I could not see it going on, or even any overspray...?
what a good video again! I always enjoy watching your videos! and that inspired me to also start a channel with the same content also this kind of rim repairs and smart repair. but keep up the good work!
Thanks for watching pal
Hi..nice job as always.! I have a new seat León with diamond cut wheels...I used Ford moondust paint to repair...with colour is a bit different...can you help me what color should use? Thanks
Ford moondust is normally pretty close. Maybe needed Blending a little further out to take ur eye off of it
Thanks for your answer.. which one do you recommend.?
Can you put everything you used in the description that would help people a lot more ! Thanks
Will do👍🏼
Hello
If the scratch is shallow and only affects the surface, could the wheel be repaired only by polishing and polishing the aluminum?
Check my wheel repair playlist, one of the videos in there should answer your questions
Can a alloy that is scuffed all round be repaired using this technique, or does the alloy have to come off of the vehicle etc.
It can be done yes
Hi, i was wondering what colour you used to match the paint? or did you just laquer over it? Thanks
I usually add a little ford moondust silver to the process before clear
What is the color code ?? For moon dust ??
Hi ، thanks for the video, top job finish, just wondering if 9006 any good for this type of alloys? Cheers
Not sure what that is
RAL 9006 is colour code mate!
i use an airbrush to paint - less overspray and perfect for smaller jobs
👍👍 good job
thanks for watching
I watch your paint mixing video where to buy the paint so you can mix for yourself can you let me know please
You need to buy a paint scheme
Once again, great job. Which silver paint are you using specifically? It matches surprisingly well.
Ok mate i found the answer reading your comments. Cheers!
I use ford moondust silver as a good general match
@@cvrpovunfortunately I am in AUS. Otherwise I must come to you to repair my wheel. Thank you for the generous, giving the paint colour
I too have a similar damage to my alloy wheel, will this cause any issue to the tyre or driving?
No but always check tyres for safety
Great video what filler do you use on alloy wheels
I used normal filler on this upol fantastic
What colour and brand if paint did you use for the repair, please?
I use debeer solvent. Ford moondust silver is a good paint to use
Hey Juliana, how did you know my lower back was crook? Great video, have tried the challenge and it feels great. Rob 🤓
Hello , fantastic ! Im french détailer and i want repair wheels as you many time.
what color for you is good for repair all wheels aluminium biton (bicolor)? Color Renault D69 is good or better is Ford moondust? Thanks so much
Hi i use ford moondust alot on diamond cut with good results. Hi from the UK
@@cvrpov yes ok i test this color next time . Good Luck .
So is that just a paint colour to mimick the diamond cut finish. .
Does exist an aluminiun compound that can be polish??? What type of Paint did u use? Nice video
Normal paint compound works to polish the metal. I use a 2k clearcoat
@@cvrpov i mean the paste we put in the diamond aluminium wheel .... I dont know how to explain hahaha if we have a Big Scratch we have to cover It but we cant Paint It because its pure aluminium with no painting! Sorry for my english
Is there a way to repair diamond cut wheels without spraying them? It’s a shame to spray finish diamond cut wheels
Great job, what was the paint you used ?
Solvent Automotive paint. Moondust silver ford
Any link to these great products for someone living in the USA? Greetings from Virginia.
we are currently only shipping within the UK, but we are looking for contacts in the USA
Nice that you can do that .... But how bout some insight as to what materials your using
Check my other wheel repair videos I've done loads. Probably the most on UA-cam
What paint code was the colour ,great match from what i can see mate
Ford moondust silver mate
Very simple repair if you know how to do It
It needs welding and then diamond cutted
This repair was very wrong..
The customer loved it
I can’t believe your channel isn’t much bigger. How did you learn to work on paint and wheels? You’re really good!
Hi. I thought the channel would be bigger by now 😅👍🏻 its growing steadily though. I'm gonna keep pumping the content out. I learnt wheels myself mate
@@cvrpov That’s amazing you’re self taught on wheels. How did you learn paint work? I watched your side mirror paint fix earlier. At least we know your subscriber channel is genuine and not purchased.
What did you use for the putty filler?
Automotive filler. Upol
Wow ! 👌🏽👍🏽
👊🏼
Would it have been possible to filler that dent as it was without all the sanding which kinda made the dented area bigger?
Just curious...
Yes possible
👍
Very nice! What paint do you use?
Solvent
Is that both or just clear coat?
Didn't think you'd be able to repair this one but mate it's another job well done and great finish. Did you use wax n grease remover on the Tyre walls?.
I used thinners on the tyres fella.. nothing better
What kind and color paint was used?
Ford moondust silver is a good all rounder
What the colour have you used? Grey or transparent?
a little bit of silver, then some clear lacquer
Hi How many hours did that take and what's was the overall cost on materials?
Probably 1 hour and around £5-10
@@cvrpov Thanks
Are you based in the north west pal? How much was this? i've similar damage to my wheel.
Hey Curb.... it's me again... 😂
Wow did you use the entire roll of tape? Plastic sheeting exists
Maybe people only have masking tape
Where can we find you
I dont trade anymore
Wouldn't that just crack off the next time that tyre is changed?
There is only a tiny amount of filler in reality
I would have done the repair with the tyre deflated, good video thou
If possible yes but not always necessary
Hi, have a question. So after filler sanding you just sprayed couple of light coats of paint and brushed it with cloth? No laquer on that?
Watch it again mate there Is clear applied *after* the base and lines were put in.
@@cvrpov great repair. I had a question about the lines?. You say you put the lines in? I can't seem to find that part? Was it with the scothbrite? or Your painting skills. Thanks for the great work.
Could weld new material onto that spot and the cut the wheel.. no filler needed just a new clear coat
What did you use to wipe off the marks etc on the scratch as first step so easily??
Sandpaper?
@@cvrpov sorry, I mean at the beginning around 0:56 you got a bottle that squid into the sponge to wipe everything off, what's that?
You don't mention what and which materials used! Anyway thanks
Check my other wheel repair videos
I'm guessing you clear coated it? Why no sand and buff at the end?
Didn't need to mate
As if by Magic!!
Nearly
I miss your comments has you did this. What kind of filler was that?
Normal body filler
Hell where are u out of action long time.
Haha sorry man I'm mid way (hopefully the later stages) of a big project for my paint Gear company. I've also taken a contract on at a sports and prestige garage so there should be some awesome cars on the channel moving forward.
would you be able to mentor me with setting up a busines like this? i already learned a lot from your videos, but i would like to pick your brain about a few things. i live in canada. i can pay you for some of your time for a call?
I am considering an online training course
@@cvrpovdo you do a training course of this?
🐦👍
How to sandpaper number thanks
🤷♂️
😍😍😍😍😍
👍🏼
I don't understand why the work is started on the rim without removing the tire.
Because its DIY
No more videos I guess it's been 2 months guess that is it
I'm still here mate. My other life has been very busy. UA-cam pay crumbs for my content niche unfortunately so its mainly done out of wanting to help people! But that don't pay the bills I'm afraid! However.. I will be starting to produce some more content very soon buddy so stay tuned.
@@cvrpov I understand indeed but to get paid well from UA-cam u need to have over million subscribers.At least u still get paid doing the job u love but I understand.
surely people will know which card is the Ace if it’s got filler on it😂
😅👍🏻
thats a lot of masking tape!
I love tape
You call that a chunk, you should see mine
Haha
Use enough masking tape🤣😂
No 😅😎
The wheel became thiner on that area so the next pothole will damage the tire and will crack the alloy. I wouldn`t recomand this as a refurbish method. It will save the appearance but the damage will be worst next time.
Do you know how they do a 'proper' diamond cut finish?
@@cvrpovI was quoted $330 minimum per wheel in Australia for repair using Lathe. Meaning it can be more expensive than just buying new set of wheels. I understand that’s an expensive machine but this price doesn’t make enough sense.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🙏
😎👍🏻
Wouldn’t of even used filler
it needed filler
Without wishing to try to teach granny how to suck eggs this job would have been a little easier if you had just deflated the tyre to move it back a bit, other than that a great tutorial.
it is ok if it is just to cheat the car rental company.....
100% yes it is
