Rim Repair Kits: DIY vs Repair Shop

Welding rims on your own can be a project most should not try!

Repairing aluminum car rims can be done in several ways, depending on the type and extent of damage. Here are some common methods for repairing aluminum car rims:

It’s important to note that repairing aluminum rims can be a complex and potentially dangerous task, especially if welding is involved. If you’re not comfortable with DIY repairs, it’s best to take your car to a professional mechanic or rim repair specialist.

  • Welding: If the aluminum rim is cracked or has a small puncture, welding can be used to repair it. However, this method requires specialized equipment and should only be done by a trained professional.
  • Sanding and polishing: If the aluminum rim has minor scratches or scuffs, sanding and polishing can be used to remove them. This can be done with sandpaper, a polishing wheel, and polishing compound.
  • Filling and sanding: If the aluminum rim has a small dent, it can be filled with a special aluminum filler and then sanded down to smooth out the surface. This method can be done with a kit available at most auto parts stores.
