 The Polished Wheel Company Ltd

State of the art machinery installed at their premises at Wadebridge, Cornwall, enables them to provide an as original factory finish at a fraction of the cost of buying new alloy wheels and an invaluable service to the classic car owner where it is not always possible to source replacement wheels.

Wheels are chemically stripped in a custom built hot chemical stripping machine, overnight, and primed and painted both sides using the latest technology then,  baked at a high temperature. Finally the wheels are laquered to help protect wheels from the elements. 

Their custom built lathe enables them to offer their customers the option of machine polished rims and face, as required.   Please note that polished alloy surfaces do need to be waxed regularly with a good quality, clear body wax to maintain their condition.

Gary & Sandra Fennell, the owners of The Polished Wheel Company, pride themselves on offering excellent quality Alloy wheel refurbishment at a reasonable price and a great service. Gary having previously gained over ten years experience working in all aspects of alloy wheel refurbishment before moving to the south-west and setting up The Polished Wheel Company in 2008.
