Gtsi-R red'n black coupé
fancy weldings will not be the biggest problem I guess, THe guy who I am always working with in his shed.. is a Car- repainter /repair-guy for 25 years now..
thats a bit of a disapointment that FRP is indeed Fiberglass where I was afraid of.. and not urethane-plastic ( PU) not that I am planning to hit some things, but whe I do.. I need to fix it.. Looks like that the colour will be a verry Standard one.. I am afraid.. to bad... had a nice Motorcycle coulor in mind.. a Harley davidson coulor.. verry nice one .. but actually most Motorcycle coulors are Candy coulors (with Inkt for the deep and bright effect) |

Pics Up tonight..
I did 3 rims last night.. but things went bad sandblasting wheels with 8 bar of pressure wont do good for the vieuwing glass... It went matt / white so needed to fit a new one.. 2 wheels were in verry bad shape with lots off oxidation on it... and paint shivers. the machine got stuffed of that junk, so this morning I cleend that thing out.. and hope to redo the last wheel I did yesterday, and to blast the 4e wheel today.. But the wheels that are done, look perfect!! Now lets see how to pollisch them!! Gtsi-R "Trust me, I was an engineer" "straight lines are for fast cars, turns are for fast drivers" |

i'd spray the whole wheel black, and them take them to someone with a lathe and turn them down a bit, no way you can get those things polished to a mirror shine without HOURS of sanding

Gtsi-R Wrote:...yes, i wouldn't have sandblasted the wheels if you want to polish them. The surface is pretty rough after sandblasting. I have done the same procedure to my wheels and then the guy who polished them said that it would be better if i stripped the paint. but now, i'd say take them to a wheels shop it's a painful job if you do it yourself cheers Markus |

You can machine them yourself, jack the car up, put the wheel on, start the engine, put em in gear, put your sandingpaper against the wheel et voila
