    C1 Hubcap edge repair

    I have a question on hubcap repair on the edge (rim) of the hubcap where it is rolled over and often gets whacked to set it into the rim.

    So my question is, I know that a good repair shop can repair the roadrash/dings on the edge, but how do you get into that area from the backside to bang out the dents? The area is rolled over on itself.

    Tips, Ideas?

    Since I am doing all of my own polishing on every other piece, I wanted to clean these up as well.

    Thanks again,

    Tony

    Tony, I never tried that repair on mine but I have seen a set of originals that Paul's Chrome restored, including the dents on the perimeter. They looked new.

    Maybe someone has tried that repair and will reply.

      Anyone have any thoughts on how to repair the hubcap edges? (or how the professionals do it?)

      I would like to give it a shot, but not sure how to get into that area.

      Thanks,
      Tony
