Silver Surfer 5.0

While claying my FX4 the other day, I noticed that I, or the driver before me (bought as demo), rubbed the driver's side alloy and left 3 pretty good scratches.

Never got pics at the time as I was too pi**ed off. This is the style I have:



Any repair suggestions other than Plastidip?

Let me know if you find something that fixes it. I am trying to sell my 2010 Lariat stock 20" and I have a few scratches on em that is hurting my ability to sell em locally!

Search "alloy wheel repair" on youtube.

Talk to a dealership about who they use to repair lease returns that need rim repair. Here in the states there are plenty of good companies that do this. It would cost about 150 to fix.

Could just repaint them.

Wheel repair company screwed my wheels up just like yours. They are light silver now instead of grey. Get a new wheel or leave it alone....

If they're painted, why not just polish the scratches out or are they too deep for that?

Scratches on alloy and plastic suck. Almost impossible to completely fix, painting then would work to an extent but as far as reversing the scratch I don't know any reasonably affordable method. Are they super deep scratches? I am having a similar scratch issue but on the glove box plastic inside the truck. Girlfriend swung her keys around when she got in truck and left a huge scratch going down the front of the glove box, I am still so pissed because its like what the hell is actually gonna fix that

They are pretty deep. You can see the "black" under the paint and they easily catch on fingernails.

I may have to replace it.
