I have a GSL-SE and I‘ll like to refurbish the original rims/wheels. Does anyone in the Orlando, FL area know good shops that refurbish rims/wheels? Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Try Gato or Olympits

 

Yea, both of those are good but Gato takes for ever. Go to Olympits.

I went to get an estimate to refurbish (polish) the car rims (original GSL-SE) but I think he asked too much. He asked me $500 for all 4 rims. This is the first time I do this so I have no idea how much this cost. The rims are not bent or in bad shape, they’re just old and with stains for been parked outside (no used) for a couple of years (over 5 years). With $500 I think I can find other rims, but I want to keep the car as original as possible. Do you think I’m wrong or $500 is not too much for the job. What else can I do? Any help or idea will be appreciated.

Thanks,

if you have a buffer and some sand paper and some extra time you can do it by yourself, your gonna need some gradual grades of sandpaper starting from mayb 600grit to as high as you can go for that real smooth look, then once your done sanding get some metal polish like some blue magic spread it on the wheels, and hit it with the buffer, and badabing polished cincolettra wheels

 

I recommend getting them sand/bead blasted and then going forward with the polishing. I redid my wheels this way and they turned out awesome. Once all of the bullshit is blasted off then you are good to go and refinishing does not take long just remember that the preperation always gives you the finished product not the paint!! PM me if you have ??s on doing it yourself. Chip
