Types of Alloy Wheel repairs
At KH Watson, we’re passionate about bringing your wheels back to life or transforming them to reflect your personal style. With state-of-the-art techniques and a commitment to excellence, we guarantee satisfaction with every wheel we refurbish.
Powder Coating
Give your wheels a durable and flawless finish with our powder coating service. This technique involves applying a dry powder to the wheel, which is then cured under high heat to create a tough layer that resists scratches, chips, and corrosion. Available in a wide range of colors, powder coating not only enhances the appearance of your wheels but also extends their lifespan.

Diamond Cutting
For a sleek, high-shine finish, our diamond cutting service is the perfect choice. This process involves precision cutting of the wheel surface with a diamond-tipped lathe to reveal a bright, metallic finish beneath the paint. The result is a striking contrast that adds sophistication and depth to your wheels. Each wheel is then sealed with a clear coat to protect the finish.
(2)
Sandblasting
To remove old paint, rust, or imperfections, our sandblasting technique is highly effective. This preparation process cleans and smooths the wheel surface, creating an ideal base for any type of finish. Sandblasting ensures that new coatings adhere properly and last longer, making it an essential step in the refurbishment process.
