Default Finally finished my wheel refurbishment

Finally got my summer tires back on! And I don't want to do that again in a hurry! After removing all 4 wheels of the 8, mask up, glass blast, break the beads, mask up, etch prime, flat , prime flat and fill several times, base coat, and clear coat, wax and refit. Even with professional help (thanks Nige!) it's a very time consuming tedious process, that I don't want repeat! So respect to anybody who does that for a living, they earn there money!
So after seeing my friends RS4 wheels that had been done by AWR in Bury for £240 I'll be going that route next time.
