Repair kerb rashes

Recommended Posts

Just did mine as well. 20 mins and $20.

 

Need to make prior appointment? Mine got small scratches but I thought of fixing it all up for CNY, since one rim only $20. I think I got 3 damaged  [bigcry]  Poor estimation when not yet used to the car dimensions.

Basically they just file away and spray.

 

Paint shop would do a more proper job.

 

What is the difference? Will filing it away affect the structure of the rim and make it prone to cracking in future?

It won't affect the structure.

 

Where there is rash it shall he file away and no putty used.

 

Look closely and difference is telling.

there are way to get rid of the rashes

1 is have it fill with filler and sand paper follow by respray

(this is little risk whenever any tire remove and mounting the fillet might drop out my itself)

another 1 method is sand it down and polish or light touchup

(this it may have some depression on affected part)

so you have to make your choice

last method is Free , leave it as it is

I'd advise to have your tire examined at a reputable workshop ASAP.

 

From the photo, I can't tell how bad the cut into the tire is.

Any suggestions near Hougang / Sengkang.
