Shot blasting and wheel refurbishing

As above can anyone reccomend a place to have my wheels shot blasted or failing that a wheel refurbisher, must be in the Bristol area. Any help appreciated  :wink:

I'm taking my cups to be done there soon. I also found DMD wheel refurbishing in Bristol. His unit has closed, but i think he works from home. Reasonable charges too.

DMD Wheel Refurbishment Ltd
0117 377 5436
14 Samuel White Rd
Bristol, BS15 3LZ

Alloy magic in poole are very good, but a little pricy and there's a booking system.

wheelrefurbishing.com in in Herts not swindon. I'm going there because i believe they're good with black chrome, as they've done them before.
It depends what wheels you have, but he seemed ok on the phone. There aren' that many decent pro places around actually. There's a lot of cowboys around !

Try Pureklas on here as (Lowvento), he's not in Bristol, but he'll collect, and deliver back to you. His work is second to none, you won't be disappointed.
