How to restore diamond-cut wheels economically

Model: Fiat Fiat Various
Part: Wheel rim

In this video we see how it is possible to restore a scratch on diamond cut wheels, economically. In fact, we know that when a diamond cut wheel is scratched, it costs at least 120/130 euros to restore it, because it needs to be completely polished. However, if we are satisfied with a slightly less perfect result, we can follow the instructions of this youtuber who recommends using a kit that we can purchase on carismtix.it. The kit contains a cleaner to clean the wheel thoroughly, a brush to complete the cleaning, the appropriate polish for chrome plating and a special cloth, at a cost of 47.15 euros, with free shipping. We will also need sandpaper in grits of 150/240/400/600/800 to be used dry in sequence and then 1500 and 3000 to be used wet. The sequence of sandpaper must be strictly followed to achieve a good result. We will use the sandpaper after cleaning the wheel perfectly, and then apply the polish. The result is good and the cost is reasonable.
