This is an alloy wheel which has been put on a lathe and part of or the entire painted surface of the wheel machined off to leave a shiny alloy finish. A small part of the actual alloy is machined off to create this finish. A coat of lacquer is then applied to the frersh cut alloy to prevent corrosion.
You will be able to see if your wheel is diamond cut upon close inspection you will see very fine lines which has been created by the presision cutting machine. The appearance of the face of the wheel is very shiny. This may be harder to distinguish if you wheels are of direty, of poor quality and are old or corroded. Not all alloy wheels can be diamond cut as it depends on the profile of the face of the wheel. Your specialist wheel technician will inspect your wheel and confirm if it is possible.
Depending on how well you look after your wheel, diamond cut wheels will not retain their finish for as long as a powder coated wheel. Any damage caused to the lacquer on a diamond cut wheel, however small, will allow water to seep in-between the lacquer. This will result in “milky patches” being left on the finished area. Always ask your specialist wheel technician if you have any concerns with your wheel.
You should not subject your wheels to a diamond cut alloy repair/refurbishment more than two or three times as removing too many layers will leave the surface too thin and could make it prone to cracks.
