Curb damage! Before and after pictures

Hey Trinity, where would you get clearcoat for that?

Hmm. That's a good question. I thought I'd simply walk into my local autoparts store, walk to the body section and pick up sandpaper and a spray bomb of clear coat. Maybe I should actually see if this is available

Nice job!!

Did it off-balance the wheel from removing/sanding that much material??

It would have too since they are measured ti the gram to balance them.

One of my Bullitt rims looks exactly like your top pic. Exactly. I'll have to try your technique 'cause your results look amazing.

I'm going to go one step futher though and, after the "repair", shoot the spot with a misting of clearcoat (masking the rest) in an effort to help prevent oxidation.

I actually bouhgt a can of clearcoat, but I was just too lazy to paint it

Nice job. Hope you don't mind me moving this to tech.
