Can any one recommend a good alloy wheel refurbishing company for the London area?

I can recommend Lepsons, they are in Northampton but do a courier service.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I just used OPC (Bolton) to repair mine. Not a full refurb but they did a fantastic job and the 3 they did look like new. There were 2 thumbnail size nicks in 2 but my front nearside had been kerbed (not by me!) and scratched for 1/3 of the way round. They have someone attend there every Wednesday to do this for them, it isn't done in house. I presume other OPCs would offer a similar service. It was about £70 a wheel less PCGB discount.
If you don't mind a trip out to Reading, try Specialised Paintwork (behind the OPC Reading)

. They do an exchange service, so can often do it while you wait.
I would recommend 'Spit and Polish' in Tonbridge.
They will actually refurb the whole wheel rather than just do the 'face' of the wheel as the mobile refurbishing people do. You will find details on the internet and it is not that far from the M25 south of London.
I can recommend Lepsons, they are in Northampton but do a courier service. Turned round 4 diamond polished alloys for me with a black painted inner in a week. They looked brand new when I got them back.
Robert,
I am not sure of the price at this moment in time .... I will take a look through my receipts tonight. Specialised Paint will provide 10% discount to PCGB members. The PU is a standard price, as they do many of them. The alloy price will depend on what you need doing. I had mine acid dipped and re-painted ... and wanted them back to "concours" standard.
Suggest you give them a call and discuss what you want. You need to be specific about the quality of the finish you expect on your alloys so that there are no differences in expectations when you get them back.
I was very pleased with the final outcome.
Jason
Thanks- I've just given them a call- £85 per wheel, and £379 for the PU, all plus VAT, but then as you say less 10% pcgb discount. They said this would be OE finish on the wheels, inside and out.
I used Specialised a few years ago for my 993- absolutely delighted!
I will have to see if I can get it past 'the Finance Committee" [8|]
