The wheel is scratched, where to repair the comparison

In the process of driving, car owners will often encounter a variety of troubles, and car paint scratches are generally more concerned about car owners, but have you paid attention to wheel scratches? If the hub scratches against a rock, or accidentally rubs against the raised edge of the sidewalk......It is possible to scratch the wheel hub in these situations, and the wheel must be repaired after scratching? And how should the hub be repaired?

Whether the wheel can be repaired after scratching depends on the situation: 1. Wheel material: electroplated and polished wheel can not be repaired.

Because the surface of the electroplating and polishing wheel hub is very bright and bright, it cannot be repaired. 2. Scratch degree: If there is no exposed primer, it will only affect the appearance and have no other hazards, so this can not be repaired; But if the wheel scratch has exposed the primer, then it needs to be repaired, because if it is not repaired after the primer, then after a long time, the scratch will wrinkle and expand the range, and it will also rust and corrode.

How should the hub be repaired after scratching? Wheel repair is divided into: 1. Scratches should be checked, carefully check whether the scratches extend to the inside of the hub, if not, you can simply repair it, just use paint diluent, slowly wipe the scars around, and remove dirt; 2. If the scratch of the wheel hub is relatively deep, it is difficult to remove the swag next to the scratch, so you need to use a tool to completely clean it with a small toothpick; 3. Before repairing the scratches of the hub, first paste the parts without scars with adhesive tape, so as to avoid painting the irrelevant parts by mistake; 4. Tidy up the tip of the brush, coat the finishing paint, shrink slightly after the paint dries, and it is best to paint it slightly convex; 5. After painting, it will take about a week to dry completely.

After drying, apply with water-resistant paper dipped in soapy water to smooth the surface; 6. After wiping with water-resistant paper, rub it with a mixture to make it shiny, and then wax it. Prevention is better than prevention, we can not wait until the wheel hub has a problem before starting to worry, when we usually drive, we must always pay attention to the wheel: 1. Before cleaning the wheel, we must first determine the temperature of the wheel, if the temperature is high, we must not use cold water to clean, we should let it cool naturally before cleaning; Otherwise, the aluminum alloy wheel hub will be damaged, and even the brake disc will be deformed and the braking effect will be affected.

2. If you don't want to affect the beauty of the hub, then do not use detergent to clean the aluminum alloy hub at high temperature, which will cause a chemical reaction on the surface of the hub, lose its luster and affect the appearance. Even if there is dirt on the hub that is difficult to clean, do not use too hard brushes, especially iron brushes, to avoid damaging the surface of the wheel. 3. If your car often runs on the beach, then you must pay more attention to the wheels and clean them frequently, otherwise the salt on the beach will cause corrosion on the aluminum surface.

Hello! After the repair of the wheel scratch, you can either repair it in a professional shop outside, or you can get it yourself on the TB Tao set wheel repair set, and the effect of strong hands-on ability is almost the same. If you are too troublesome, you can find a local car professional decoration and modification shop, which can generally be obtained.

Hope it helps!

How to repair a scratched wheel - experience.

There are three ways to repair automobile wheels.

1. Surface damage repair method:

Dust-free sandblasting, putty, grinding, painting, wire drawing, baking, polishing.

2. Deformation repair method:

1) Deformation position detection: first find the position of the wheel hub deformation, install the wheel hub on the fixture, use the correction needle disc, find the deformation position for calibration.

2) Heating: Use a blowtorch to heat the deformed position locally, and the small red dot on the hub is an infrared thermometer, which can stop heating after reaching a certain temperature.

3) Correction: After reaching a certain temperature, the hub becomes soft, and a small hydraulic top is used to make repeated minor corrections. Finally, meet reasonable standards.

4) Finish: If the deformation of the stiffeners of the hub (left and right swing) is particularly serious, it is not recommended to repair it.

3. Wheel hub fracture repair method:

Replace directly. The wheel hub is a cylindrical metal part in an automobile tire that is used to support the tire with the shaft as the center, and in layman's terms, it is the part where the axle is installed in the center of the wheel, and is an important part connecting the brake drum (brake disc), wheel disc and half shaft. That is, the cylindrical center part of the wheel.

Wheel scratches are relatively minor and need to be repaired, and if not repaired, it may deepen the damage to the wheel hub and cause a risk to driving safety. The scratches left after scratching may cause the wheel to oxidize, so that the paint of the wheel will fall off, and the life of the wheel will be affected over time, so the wheel repair has its meaning.

But to remind everyone is that wheel repair is not a panacea, if the scratches are left deeply, it may cause the wheel to deform or crack the gap, in these serious situations it is best to choose to replace the new wheel, safety is the most important.

Yes. Of course, the damage to the wheel can be repaired. But first of all, it depends on what process is used to make the wheel, and even what material is made of the wheel, and the method of repair is different.

The surface of the wheel hub has baking paint, electroplating, imitation electroplating, and wire drawing process. The materials can be divided into steel and aluminum alloys, and the process of the wheel body also has low-pressure casting, spin casting and forging. Therefore, it must be confirmed by the maintenance master before the corresponding repair can be carried out.

The shape of the wheel is to make the wheel run up, plays the role of a bracket, and is also an indispensable part of the car, which makes the beauty of the whole car more beautiful and ensures the safety of driving. The wheel hub is easy to get dirty, if it is not cleaned for a long time, it may be corroded and deformed, resulting in potential safety hazards, so special attention should be paid to the maintenance of the wheel hub.

But it depends on the severity of the wheel scratch, if it is only a slight scratch and does not expose the primer, there is no need to repair, after all, it only affects the beauty of a little wheel. In addition, the original luster of the silhouette is very bright, and it is difficult to spot without careful observation.

Scratches on the wheel can certainly be repaired, and like the technical good, he can repair it to the original standard. Of course, it is also necessary to repair, after the wheel hub is scratched, he will expose the surface of the aluminum alloy, aluminum alloy is a lively metal, and air contact will lead to corrosion and oxidation, which will lead to air leakage on the inside of the tire, and also affect the beauty. Of course, the repair will not affect the safety after the repair, the hub is not a broken column, and the repair is within the normal range.

Abrasions on car wheels are inevitable, and only when these abrasions accumulate to a certain extent that they may affect the performance of our vehicles, it is enough to repair them. When the degree of damage to the hub accumulates to a certain extent, it must be repaired to the professional maintenance point in time, but some repairers are filled with putty for the defects, and then spray paint after grinding, due to the high-speed operation of the hub, the temperature difference itself is large, hot and cold, and the putty on the hub is very easy to expand and fall off, resulting in damage to the paint of the hub, making the repair of the hub meaningless. As long as the wheel hub of the vehicle is not deformed, it will not affect the safe driving of the vehicle, if there are traces of scratching, the slight can be polished, and the dents can be applied to the metal putty and then re-painted It is necessary to assess whether the hub should be repaired according to the specific situation

According to the material of the hub: the surface of the electroplated and polished hub is very bright, so it is not necessary to repair, and another reason is that the repair is too costly and not worth repairing. Depending on the degree of scratching:

Mild scratching, without revealing the primer, is just a little ugly, no other effects, but if it is a heavy scratch, exposed primer, it needs to be repaired, because if the exposed primer is not treated in time, then his surroundings will be wrinkled and will expand the range, and then it will rust for a long time, if the scratch area is too large, you need to go to the paint shop to repair it. There is also an important problem is whether the scratch will affect the driving safety, if it is only scratched on the surface, it will only affect the appearance, and there will be no safety problems, but if it is the edge of the hub scratched, and the area is too large, it is easy for the tire and the hub to be released for a long time, and the hub will leak. How to repair the hub:

First of all, you must first clean up the dirt on the scratched part, if the scratch part is very deep, you can also use a toothpick to help clean it, and finally use a professional cleaning agent to minimize the damage to the surface of the hub. Then, after the surface is cleaned, fill the scratches with putty, and after drying, it will be repainted. In short, you should take good care of your car and understand some basic knowledge of car maintenance.

From the point of view of **, it is still very light, and it is okay not to deal with it. Wheel repair has to go to a professional shop, and the cost is relatively high, so use it like this first, and then talk about it when you have the opportunity. Comfort, it does not affect the use and safety, but it affects the appearance, you can go to the repair shop to repair the ordinary aluminum alloy wheels can not cost a few dollars, brushed wheels are relatively expensive, I hope mine will be helpful to you!

Yes. If the surface is simply scratched, it does not need to be repaired, but it only affects the beauty of the surface of the car tire, and has no impact on the safety performance of the tire. However, if the edges are badly scratched, then they need to be repaired, otherwise there is a possibility that the tire will leak due to poor contact with the tire.

At the same time, if the wheel is scratched and the primer is exposed, then it also needs to be repaired, because the scratched part will wrinkle and expand, and it will rust and corrode after a long time.
