What a donkey. How much of a tight arse have you got to be to use this method of refurb.

I suspect they will be peeling in no time, let alone the over spray on the car... can you see a bit of paint on the tyre ...

If you want it done ... go to a specialist like Robbie...

I feel kinda sorry for the guy doing the refurb. How can you enjoy your work when you must know you are doing it wrong from the start. The guy looks like he's been trained up and no doubt does what he does well, it's just not the right way to do it at all.

He was but I'm pretty sure that the car was sold a while back and the plate is still for sale on here. It was one of the original SVM cars.

Robbie, is it possible to post a vid of the process that you guys use to refurb wheels to show how it is really done? would be a good comparison
