Oxidisation around my nuts


Recommended Posts

Posted

Just noticed my Kuro black sprayed GT4 alloys (previous owner) are heavily oxidizing around the entire nut area, cracked, broken black paint and white powder oxidisation everywhere (post picture at some point)

 

Was going to brush off most of it for now and go over it with heavy duty wax 

 

Anybody come across this with the GT4 alloys?

Common for alloys of this age sadly. For £45 worth of products you could refurb them yourself 👍 I recently did a colour change on my Sumner wheels.

Nice

 

Weapons of choice for now

 

Stiff brush and an old can of Collinite super wax bought for my previous car....still good after 15 years

Looks like whoever painted them did a pretty crappy job. 

 

As Davey has said, you could try repainting them yourself if you're confident. 

If not you could get them powder coated any colour you fancy for a few hundred quid. 

 

I'd reccomend the wheel specialist, they did my LMGT4's and their quality is top notch.

Regular unless you are taking them back to bare metal. Prep prep prep, nice 2k lacquer to finish them off also.

Looking at those, they need to go back to bare, nightmare of a job unless sandblasting 😕
