Hi,

Finally took my ET49 ST fuchs wheels for restoration and came back like in the photo. The wheels were stored in Germany so I deided to restored them in Gerrmay by a well known wheel company, company that has started to restore wheels. Not a wise decision. Their restoration is not really on Harvey nor Alan league, their price is.

When I asked why they did not completely remove the scratches, especially on the back of the wheel, I obtained 2 answers:

a. "Nobody has complained before on cosmetical defects on the back of the wheel".
b. "If we sand the defects there will be too much material removed."

Second answer get me here for advice. QUESTION: Can the wheels be primed and sanded (the primer not the metal) to leave a uniform surface before painting them?

thx. Arturo
