    For everyone worried about the safety of the guys at Proformance. Everyone that works at the shop wears respirators and goggles. They all were excited to be featured in an Ammo video, and wanted their faces shown. Thank you for worrying, but we definitely work safe.

    Wow. Thank you for the behind the scenes. The work they do is 10 times better than what I have experienced in the UK from the 4 different refurbishers that I have used. The clarity and evenness of finish is astounding. Another great video. Thanks!

      Couldn't agree more. Couple months down the line £200/300 later, paint flakes off.
      Though initially looks good.
      Very disappointing.

    I was considering powder coating my oem rims to a high gloss black, but seeing how beautiful they look after just having the paint stripped and the suggestion they offer to get that look is more tempting.

    Thank you so much for this video Larry.. I curbed and bent 2 of my OEM Mustang wheels, I wanted to replace them, turns out they're $1,200 EACH.. LOL.. I found some places that claim to repair wheels and leave them "like new" but I wasn't sure if that was possible to even repair them, after seeing this video I'm much more confident in the process.

      The title is misleading. Expecting to see the rim repair work and its not shown. Only thing on video is stripping of paint and applying of paint and of course, cleaning. At no moment do you see how to fix damage to the rim, a repair technique is briefly mentioned at 3:03.
