Blends best with machine finish rims; don't spray as much on chrome, but it will still work.
It depends on the depth of the gashes, but with 12 years of scuffs and gashes, I had enough to do all four. If you do the proper prep and sanding, your wheels will look brand new.
I'm not sure what I'm saying. It was a perfect match for a Lexus LS 430 that I used it on.
Yes, it should work. I used it on my 2016 Tesla X, and the paint that came with the kit was a close match. Simply apply a small amount of epoxy to the surface and sand it as smooth as possible.

I was concerned that I would make a mistake because I had never attempted to repair my wheels with a professional tool. Surprisingly, it's very straightforward. If you don't have as much experience as I do, make sure to read the manual and watch the video. Before and after photos of my repair are attached. I'm quite pleased with myself, to tell you the truth.
It was all done by me! br>I'm very happy with the way my rims turned out. Deedee is a character in the film Deedee, and she is a character in the film.
For the most part, the kit was great, but the chrome paint didn't even come close to matching. After a trip to the hardware store and a search on the Internet, I was able to find a more suitable match. Because few paints can match chrome, this could be a common occurrence. Still, for a fraction of the cost of a new wheel, I now have a touched-up wheel that is barely noticeable. I've worked in an automotive facility, so I'm probably more picky than most people when it comes to products like this. With the exception of the paint match, I think this kit is fantastic.
It's simple to use, but it does require some sanding. Starting with 120 paper and working my way up to 600, I used a detail sander. After that, sand with 1000, 1500, and 2000 grit sandpaper by hand. On a badly flaking and scratched wheel, I was able to achieve a near-perfect, factory-like finish. Please keep in mind that you will not be able to return this item, so make sure you like the color before purchasing. I'm hoping it'll be able to withstand a Chicago winter, but it'll be a lot less expensive than taking it to a wheel restoration shop. After you've applied the color, make sure to seal it with a clear coat. Make sure you're wearing a good filter mask and that you're getting enough air.
For a do-it-yourself fix, the outcome was satisfactory. The instructions for the kit are littered with grammatical errors. The kit must be from China, but it makes no mention of this. The contents of the Repair Kit were listed on the back of the package, but gloves, a plastic spatula, and alcohol prep pads were not included (as stated). If you intend to keep your car, spend the money to have the wheel properly repaired at a shop.
All I can say is that it's a fantastic product; if your wheel hub is damaged, give it a try.
The paint included in this kit is terrible. It loses its "shine" and becomes foggy when wiped down with a simple cloth. The entire point of the wheel repair was defeated. Because the damage is permanent after the rim sanding, I now need to spend $250 on a new rim.
WARNING TO THE END USER This is a terrible product, and I'm not sure how it has any positive feedback. When it claims on the package that it is "easy" to use, this product has far too many steps. This wasn't the case at all. The color didn't go with my rims in the least. My rims were left with lumps, bumps, and unevenness, making them worse than they were before. I returned this item as soon as possible and received a full refund.
