Customers say
Customers like the value, ease of use, appearance and quality of the auto accessory. They mention that it’s a good product for the price, it saves expensive refurb and that the instructions are easy to use. They appreciate the silver colour and that it matches their wheels perfectly. However, some customers report issues with the performance, saying that it’s very difficult to work with and that is essentially a hard play-dough when set. Opinions are mixed on the finish.

Great little kit!
I bought some cheap beat up old alloys for my car to give me something to do during lockdown! These wheels were horrible, most of the work was in the sandig as the corrosion was really bad, but once it was smooth I could crack on.The filler is brilliant but a bit fiddley so take your time with that. For a better out come as well I bought a primer before spraying the wheels. The colour is great and looks good!I would recommend buying a pack of more paint if you’re doing all 4 wheels from scratch. I bought a pack that had 2 silver paint cans and 1 clear coat in addition to the stuff you get in this pack.Here’s my results. only just got them on the car so time will tell if the paint holds up.overall I’m very pleased

Good product – patience brings results.
Pack contains all materials necessary for job. Filler putty went off very quickly, so if there are a few areas to deal with it would be better to only mix up (knead) small amounts to enable the areas to be filled in more easily. Did this job on a warm day so that probably speeded up curing time.Colour of paint (silver) matched my wheels on Ford Focus very well so new paint did not stand out – perhaps I was just lucky there. Lacquer on top of paint finished job off nicely. Several coats of paint and lacquer were needed until I was satisfied but they dry within minutes so it isn’t too time consuming.Been done a while now and as yet (!!) no sign of ‘flaking’ or cracking. Only time will tell. So far I am very happy with the product – needs a bit of patience to get a good job but results are worth it. Can recommend it.

really good
easy to use and the colour match to my wheels is really good
Kedot –
Excellent finish.
Very straight forward instructions, clearly explaining that the quality of the repair will give a much better paint finish.After the first coat of paint I could still see faint lines where the damage was. By rubbing down with very fine wet and dry paper, filling with fine finishing filler, I was able to completely blend the repair into the surrounding area by painting. After putting the lacquer on the repair the damaged area could not be seen.Very pleased with the result!

Good for a painted finish wheel
Great DIY kit if youâre finishing on a solid colour wheel but suggest not using on finished metal as leaves silver finish on polished alloy.

Take your time, it’s worth the effort
I’m a novice when it comes to alloy wheel repairs but thought I’d give this set a try to repair 2 kerb rashed alloys, one of them half the circumference of the wheel. I decided to do 1 at a time so I could learn from any mistakes and tune my approach on the 2nd alloy (I’d definitely recommend you do that if you have not done this type of thing before). Having plenty of time on my hands I decided to follow the advice and took my time to be as careful and meticulous as possible. Apparently it’s all about the preparation and I can confirm that is sound advice. The supplied abrasive papers and files provide a good selection of items to grind down and smooth out any gouges. The next step is to mix the filler. I found that it was relatively hard to start but quickly became malleable and changed colour, just as the instructions suggested. The compound is a little like plasticine and was easy to spread into the areas requiring filling. Leaving it for 10 minutes or so it quickly started to harden and after an hour it was like iron, ready to sand down in preparation for spraying. I was impressed with how well the hardened filler smoothed down, what I would say is do not apply too much, it’s really hard and so the more you apply the longer it will take to sand and reshape to the original wheel profile. It’s important that you ensure that the wheel is super clean at this stage, the alcohol wipes work a treat. After carefully masking the tyres I was ready to spray. The silver paint goes on smoothly and matched perfectly, I did the whole wheel first time around (on the second wheel I just did the affected area which is a much better approach). The lacquer was next, again this goes on nice and smoothly. I am impressed, however there are a couple of things that knock off a star. On filling the second wheel the compound seemed much harder once the tube had been opened, to an extent that I could not work it to a texture where I could apply it. I cut further down into the tube and then found it would not set as I had not worked it for long enough. You really need to ensure that you follow the instructions. Also, I find that the lacquer doesn’t gloss up to that “wet look” as well as the original finish, in fact it seems to be a bit “matt finish” in areas. I think this is probably down to the preparation. All in all I am very happy with the finish and would recommend. However, you must follow the instructions to the letter and take as long as possible to go through the process. Great value

Good finish, decent kit.
This kit was a lot of work for my wheels, which looked so shabby (peeling, bubbling) surface finish.All the stuff was included and whilst it was difficult , intense work, the results were very good. It would’ve been £50+ per wheel to be done professionally, and the result was good for a car that is worth less than £2,000.I needed to buy more silver spray, but I wanted to do 4 wheels inside and out, and my spraying was probably the weakness.Overall, a good kit and the repairs have held up well a few years later.
