Repair Option Number 2 - Outside Companies
^
Some outside companies are offering wheel refinishing services. One such company, Transwheel Corporation (800-892-3733), provides this
service with GM guidelines. Other companies may also exist.
^
Any process that re-machines or otherwise remanufactures the wheel should not be used.
^
The wheel ID must be recorded and follow the wheel throughout the process to assure that the same wheel is returned. The refinisher must
permanently ID stamp the wheel and warrant the painted/clearcoated surfaces for a minimum of one year or the remainder of the new vehicle
warranty, whichever is longer.
^
Paint and/or clearcoat must not be present on the following surfaces: the nut chamfers, the wheel mounting surfaces and the wheel pilot hole.
^
A refinishers responsibility includes inspecting for cracks using the Zyglo system or the equivalent. Any cracked wheels must not be refinished. No
welding, hammering or reforming of any kind is allowed. A plastic media blast may be used for clean up of the wheel. Hand and/or lathe sanding
of the machined surface and the wheel window is allowed. Material removal, though, must be kept to a minimum.
