THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I absolutely despise long drawn out DIY videos. I don't need to know how the weather is where you are, or for you to repeat yourself 6x about the same thing. I wish everyone did videos like this. No talking, just 1 sec per step... I can figure the rest out. Thank you sir!!

Like the opposite of a good dyi video. You don't know which polishes he used, which sand paper grits, when to dry sand, when to wet sand, the list goes on.

This is beautiful! (Fab job on the rash + exceptional short- IMO, this is what a short should be) I will now go to the full video to get the details

[@jonathancrincoli6263]

Did you polish all the machine lines out of the whole rim ?

[@AndToTheRepublic4WhichItStands]

I love how he doesn't respond

[@duomaxwell1743]

Exactly what I was thinking. Also never showed a full shot. Guarantee that spot looks way different

[@Southghost5997]

Doubt it. Still satisfying to is non OCD folk

[@ZB4-ng8os]

I do wheel repair as well, if you don’t have the money for a CNC Machine cut you’re going to have to live with the new polished out part, it’s noticeable but won’t take away from the look of the wheel unless done sloppy. The guy in the video imo is pushing it on sloppy due him cutting off being right before the spoke goes down center

[@Louis-bn7ni]

@@ZB4-ng8osyou could use a grey scotch pad on the end of a drill to put the machine line effect back into it, works quite well

[@nomorenonsense]

Can you share where you got such evenly depth curb rash lol? Curb rash i have had and seen is always deeper in spots and not even ;)

[@markfivecortina]

Well that's amazing - I did not know you could do this

[@daveveen8619]

Love the soundtrack! Video is very informative as well.

[@brett7220]

You done a nice Job on the wheel. I Had to do this by hand on all fours wheels due to scuff marks. Not diamond cut though. 👍🏻

[@jamiesmith45]

Hi. Quick question. The last application. Is that you rubbing the lacquer instead of spraying on because you are only repairing a small area? Thanks

[@Tapped-o9k]

Currently sanding my rims too. Sanding aint the issue for me but the painting afterwards. I rlly suck at it, its a mess, expensive and time consuming. Gotta do it tho, aluminium also "rusts" (react with oxygen)

[@dinky19810]

Such a beauty. Goes well with the music.

[@bbcala9719]

Smoothing it out and polishing is the easy part. But how can you get the machined lines put back on the rim?

[@CarCleaningGuru]

You can’t really. A scotch pad might give the effect somewhat.

[@ScaleFree777]

What product did you use for the buffing?

[@CarCleaningGuru]

Turtle Wax One & Done Compound.

[@allencleveland7248]

Love all your videos man

[@futhermuckerson]

So satisfying...I'd say more but KZbin will sensor it. I'll say it like this, it gave me a detailer stiffy.

[@griffin1366]

[@Servicetoyou]

Hello i have the same problem in one rim but the problem is the wheel is mate not chrome ! Any option in this case?

[@AlowstayLowKNOWZ]

Good job..I scratched my wheels on my 2017 corolla..and I was worried chrome can't b fixed at all..

[@danielcalma2138]

This is so satisfying

[@Familia-x3d]

Hello, good video, can you tell me what material you use because my car rims are scratched

[@rajaryanigdncxhadk4090]

Amazing work 💯

[@lucaswalker2538]

Great vid.

[@guitariste47]

I personnaly fill in the damages with aluminum putty when its very damaged and then sand and repaint it

[@sonnys7032]

Only aluminum rims can’t do that on chromed rims cus if u sand too much it will rub through and chrome will be gone ..well u can it depends how deep the scratches are.

[@adamcurpier]

Nice! Could of re-brushed the polished part to match with scotch pad in one direction. Otherwise ❤

[@abymondesir23]

Smooth asf ❤

[@WILKU97]

What if after using sandpaper there is no first layer of silver paint? Should I wrap the rim and apply spray paint and then a clear layer or can I paint it over with a brush? (I have silver corrector in a tube with a brush)

[@philwells2920]

What about the little groove lines that are shown in the beginning? The whole rim will have those lines except the part you sanded down

[@CarCleaningGuru]

Price you pay for getting rid of the scuff yourself on the cheap.

[@footwyse]

Amazing! What was used for this process!?

[@DTunedF22]

What about the lines that’s in the top layer of the rim I always wonder about that and I really wanna repaint my rims exactly Factory silver Aluminum alloy

[@mazda_rt24-p]

Machined face, do not do this if you want to keep that. Only option is to have them refurbished

[@wafflesarecool1]

What grit sandpaper did you use and step down from?

[@maxcook6823]

Can I ask what sanding paper u used at the very beginning? Also that hand held machine thing you used after ? Or is it a bufffer ? Could you possibley explain and tell me what it is I will need to get the scuffs out of my alloy wheels as they don’t look great?what I need to buy I mean? Preferably something that I can afford as I don’t have lots of £££££s and want to get what I need bit buy bit . Thanks.

[@dmaaaj]

What about the grit number what kind of solution did you use ???? 🧐🧐🤨

[@CarCleaningGuru]

I can’t remember to be honest 🙈. Nothing specific, just what I had to hand in the shed.

[@DEVILMATE1996]

Brilliant video diy is always good

[@acid847]

did you polish out all the oe lathe work on the wheel to maintain to finish you put on the wheel?

[@CarCleaningGuru]

Machine marks will be eliminated leaving flat polished spots but still better than a big scuff imo.

[@lanegraytiburon]

How do you call that polishing tool ?

[@carlosdubon8539]

But it was brushed aluminum, did you sand the entire rim? It should look uneven if you only did the scratched parts right?

[@CarCleaningGuru]

Yes you’re left with a polished section but it shouldn’t be too noticeable when back on the car and it’s far better than a big scuff imo!

[@topquark6919]

Great job.

What kind of polish gun is that? And pad? Plz lmk

[@peter903]

Nice, but what if they are clear coated?

[@CarCleaningGuru]

Protect them with something afterwards. I used a ceramic coating here but anything you can use on paintwork you can keep the metal topped up with.

[@Christfortheliving]

whats wheels are these

[@xiploc]

How has it been? Any corrosion?

[@CarCleaningGuru]

Dulled a tiny bit over winter with the road salt but came up fine again with a quick hand polish.

[@artflorez1568]

OMG, great job but how did you do that to your tire.????? LOL

[@tbrennancreative4958]

Hondas have. Diamond cut rims you just can’t just sand them without ruining the diamond cut milled Lines

Was already ruined by the scuff.

what is the last thing you apply on the wheel? kinda coat?

Ceramic coating, metal sealant or even wax will do the job so long as you reapply it every few months.

No clear coat?

Ceramic coating and just keep it clean.

@@CarCleaningGuru thank you. Need to do some work on my alloys and don’t fancy it all by hand

[@gws_3]

Did you have to take the clearcoat off?

[@CarCleaningGuru]

Yes hence needing to keep the area topped up with some form of protection thereafter but the scuff had chewed through it already.

[@JG-nx3jg]

This wouldn't work with diamond cut?

[@CarCleaningGuru]

These are diamond cut, you’re left with a flat polished finish which does contrast with the factory cut and lacquered finish a bit but still better than an unsightly scuff.

[@CarCleaningGuru]

Yeh the final sanding marks were an option but decided to polish and blend, doesn’t look too bad overall.

[@JG-nx3jg]

@@CarCleaningGuru ahh i thought they looked like diamond cuts. So does the polishing process stop them from corroding in the future? Or do they really need to be lacquered/sealed like they would be out of the factory. I ask as i have a bunch of scuffs on my V40s diamond cuts

[@bradspray701]
