rims sandblasted

Hey, i want to know where i can get my rims sandblasted and re laquered

the laquer is peeling and it's corroding underneath the lacquer

anyway i stripped 2 of them, but i cant seem to get the tarnish off

anyway, im in the niagara region, and im curious if there's anybody around that could do that for me

thanks

a place called Carcone's seems to be the best. It's in Aurora though.
905-773-5778


There is also PRecision Rim Repair, in Toronto.

man, i guess we got you all excited, you need to be less sensitive about like that, and besides those do look like hubcaps.

no they arent wheel covers, they do have centre plastic "hub caps" covering the center bolt pattern, but they are alloy, why would i ask about sandblasting plastic wheel covers?
