To anyone trying this: I achieved the best effect with three sanding steps in stead of two. I first sanded and painted two wheels and then did the other two the next day. The first two I sanded with 100 grid and then 400 grid. After painting and drying, they turned out rather matte and a kind of icy silver and feel rough. I decided to put way more effort in sanding the next two wheels. I used 100 grid, 240 grid and then 400 grid, and spend just more time sanding generally this time and really made sure everything was nice and smooth. These two wheels turned out beautifully shiny, a more metallic silver and they are smooth to the touch. Thank you Chrisfix for this great video! Learned a lot from it, and learned a lot from my own process too. Biggest lesson: you can not be sloppy on the prepwork - it is the most important part. Don't think you will simply cover and hide imperfections with the layers of paint. No, the paint will only accentuate any imperfections you leave!

[@H_de_Weert]

Also, I used my multi tool on the hard to reach places. This was a big mistake! The steel wire brush carved deep into the original layers of paint. IF you use a multi tool, you will have to strip the full wheel of all it's paint completely, to bare metal. You can't leave a single spot of paint. I used the multi tool on spots that were hard to sand by hand, but it turned out nigh impossible to make those spots smoothly transition into the hand-sanded parts. You will see bumps and gouges.

[@SlowBoiGang]

Took me 11 hours to do all 4 wheels but damn they look amazing now.

[@chrisfix]

Awesome!!!!

[@JustinAEgan]

11 hours! ... now figure out how much you paid... "yourself" / hr... minimum wages at a fast-food (burger flipper or cashier) job, down at Mikey D's, Jack in the box or KFC will give you something to compare against... plus cost of paint, supplies, sandpaper, will tell you if it was worth it. Add in the benefit of personal satisfaction - of knowing that the job was done right - 'cause you did it yourself (nothing beats the pride of workmanship you get when you do-it-yourself). Oh... no taxes either! I usually pay myself minimum wage of $50/hr. You saved about $500 - $600 cash! verses sitting on your ass watching music videos or texting your loser friends watching "porn' in the basement 'apartment' at home.

Hey Chris, awesome video. My son's mother has been driving around in an otherwise perfect town and country for years but for her corroded, scratched and oxidized rims that were so bad the clearcoat was flaking away, foggy and trapping dirt and brake dust....about 6 hours of stripping, sanding, primer, paint and 2K clear and she is blown away by how much she loves looking at her van again.... Thanks man, put a huge smile on my face!

[@TechGameEras]

Just a word of warning, I work at a place put tires on rims, don't try to build up too much of that bondo on the lip of the rim. Especially if you intend on using lower profile tires, sometimes the bar we use to lift the bead off the rim can require some pressure and I wouldn't doubt that it could crack some off if you try to rebuild too much of the lip. Some shops may have different, more precise tools, but just thought I'd put it out there is all.

[@danc1197]

Why not just flip the rim so the inside is facing up? The tire only goes in from one side or the other so why scratch the finished side when you can scrape the side nobody sees.

Having worked in a bodyshop, this is an extremely well done step-by-step process for this repair! What's even better is that it's done with everything you can pick up at your local automotive shop over the counter. Because we had to take cleanliness to the next level to avoid customer complaints / re-dos at the bodyshop, I would also recommend painting the wheels on a cleaner surface, lessens the chance of dirt/dust particles flying up on to your work. Also, before the clear coat process, you could do a quick pat down with a Tack Cloth to make sure surface is clean as can be before you seal it in with the clear coat.

I found your channel maybe a week ago and I just wanted to say thank you. I've learned so much it isn't even funny. I'm a woodworker and I wanted to pass something on to you that might help you save some money as well. I use a sandpaper called Abranet by Mirka. It costs a bit more than your average pack of sand paper, but its a mesh, so it rarely clogs and cleans very easy. It has saved me hundreds since I switched. I went from using half a pack per project to using only one abranet disk per three of four projects (They come 5 disks per pack, it comes in rolls and standard rectangles too). I've had to use them on steel and aluminum before and work great. Thanks again for your hard work, it is very much appreciated.

Also if you don’t let’s the lug nut holes cure you may have to keep checking them after every drive for loose

[@victorjbarker]

Nonsense. If painted evenly the shim distance would be identical to the machined surface. Also, rattle can paint is extremely thin once the solvents flash off. The paint is typically only 0.005" in thickness which is roughly the thickness of human hair or a sheet of paper. Plus the torque generated by lug nuts threads will be in the thousands of pounds per square inch on the wheel face which will squish the fresh paint evenly. I own a Metrology and calibration laboratory where we calibrate torque wrench's, coating thickness gages, gage blocks to the millionths of an inch, etc. and measure automotive aerospace and medical parts daily on robotic Coordinate Measuring Machines. Ive been in hundreds of manufacturing facilities of all kinds and seen many processes. The thickness of rattle can paint does not surpass the dimensional runout tolerance of OEM and aftermarket wheels, let alone the machining tolerances of brake rotors and drums that they are mounted too. There is way more runout on those parts than you would ever get with a layer or 2 of rattle can spray paint.

[@SteveWeltman]

Chris always does great work... I know that this is a really old video but it's still worth the watch.

[@ahmadghosheh3104]

I think if anyone saves money off your tips they should pay you a donation of at least $5 and up. it's freaking worth it. make it so Chris, put a donate button somewhere if KZbin doesn't let you then do like other places and use some of the funding places and put a link to it, I am ready to give, you saved me a lot.

[@chrisfix]

I would be a millionaire by now haha. That would be awesome! Thanks a lot and I am glad the videos are helpful!

[@MrConspark]

Making sure the boso who refits your tyre doesn't scratch the shit off again. Great video once again Chris

[@chrisfix]

The guy I took it to was awesome! Super careful.

[@benhowe5506]

Hi Chrisfix, I'm super impressed with the mag resto mate. those Jag mags were really beat to shit when you first got them, and you did it again. just bloody brilliant work Chris. top marks for this video buddy. love ya work mate. 😎👍

[@chrisfix]

Thanks a lot man! I really appreciate it!

[@christianpickett7950]

This was a extremely good video from a "learning how to" stand point. One of the best on the Web i have seen. Following these well thought out steps gives me the confidence that i could do a pretty solid job, so Thank you for the amazing video. The one thing i would say, is that i thought the wheels that were on the jag at beginning of video were a sharper design (taking absolutely nothing away from the amazing work you did on the OEM rims you grabbed and transformed)

[@glenishii2022]

Your diy videos are hands-down, THE BEST in all of YT-land. Simple, straightforward explanations, tools/parts/supply lists, step-by-step instructions, and shown results are what sets them apart from the others. Keep it up Chris, you’re the best! 😉🤙🏼

[@All2Skitzd]

I bondo'd my 14's to some 24 inch floaters, thanks cris.. Chevy Riding High

[@chrisfix]

+All2skitzd hahaha

[@All2Skitzd]

***** He has a video of him doing a repair with the tires on on his channel. I think the thumbnail is a picture of a rim with business cards all around it

[@rayg5445]

When you brought up the Bondo after finishing the cleaning I was like nooooo not yet!!!... Then you brought out the sandpaper and I was like, "It's chrisfix, who am I kidding?" lol

[@deanomutch6175]

Ditto, lol. I've got a set of Pepper Pots I'm currently doing for my Fiesta and thought I'd come see how Chrisfix has worked his magic on his own. Never fails to amaze me.

[@luciferlyon4839]

Not gonna lie I learned a lot watching your videos . I love how detailed you are when teaching is how to repair and swap parts

[@sfoster9179]

One thing that makes your videos so good is that you think it through before you start and say what needs to be said!

[@kuckian]

i love how he says "half"!! it's so different to how we say it in england!! Sooo satisfying lol

[@kuckian]

*Chris walks into the local camera store* Camera store guy: Spray painted your lens again?

[@tomthetitan3697]

For real though he’s probably using a lens shield or a piece of acrylic

[@carlklitzke9455]

"In this video, I'm going to show you how to remove paint from the front element of your camera lens, restoring to like-new condition."

[@saharadezzert6521]

I'm about to go out today and do this on my Acura TSX rims with duplicolor chrome finish. Thanks a lot for the awesomely straight forward informative video.

[@andrewdavis6917]

I bought some rims from a used place last weekend. I saw problems with the rims and remembered this video.. can't wait to spiff them up.
