  • Stock wheel restoration

    Hi all,
    I'm doing a big wheel restoration + paint in a couple of weeks. Everything seems to be in order at the moment EXCEPT finding a suitable filling putty for curb damaged alloys.
    In the US they have a product that you cake on, apply hardening paste, and sand off. (Bondo) This must be strong and suitable to paint over.
    Does anyone know what I could use for this? I need to know it'll definitely work.
    I look at my V-Dub, and all I can think is....."Dat Ass....."

      Yeah I've seen that, thanks.
      I'm just seeing if anyone has had experience with specific products. MCM are great, but I don't know about the longevity of the product they used, and how well the paint holds over it.

      I'll probably end up using it though, and post results for future lurkers!
