Can Scratched Alloy Wheels Be Repaired?
1 Answers
If the alloy wheel accidentally hits a stone causing scratches, or rubs against a raised curb on the sidewalk, etc., these situations may lead to wheel scratches. Whether scratched alloy wheels can be repaired depends on the circumstances. Here is additional information: 1. Wheel material: Chrome-plated or polished wheels cannot be repaired because their surfaces are too shiny to restore. 2. Extent of damage: If the primer coat is not exposed, it only affects aesthetics with no other impact, so repair may be unnecessary; however, if the scratch reveals the primer, repair is needed. Leaving it untreated may cause the damaged area to wrinkle and expand over time, potentially leading to rust and corrosion.
