Anyone know of a shoppe in CANADA that can refinish rims Brushed Finish???

Seems that every shoppe I message or call can do a machines finish on a flat rim but nobody can do a brushed finish . I might end up painting from carcone or whatever the name of the highly regarded by many shoppe is called but I really don't want paint. I don't want to powdercoat because I'm worried noone local can do temp control to ensure they don't weaken forged wheels.

Anyone know? Hell if you know of a refinishing shoppe just post it So I can call and ask please!!

My last option is to sell the wheels and just reorder in a different finish.

Subscribed to this thread, i've wondered the same thing about brushed finished locally. Please keep us informed if you find someone and post pics of the results.

Been calling and emailing since yesterday so far not much luck. I might end up doing it by hand. Curbed can do a machined finish but only on a flat surface. I want brushed like on my Iforged.. Inside the spokes and all. If I find anything I will def post.

I've heard excellent things about http://www.wheelwizards.ca from my friends who own Z-Cars.

Might be worth trying.

Maybe contact http://www.alloywheelrepair.ca/

There in Ottawa, but have a great reputation around here. Not sure if they can do what you're asking though...

Spoke with 5abivt on here hes in the GTA and he did his own wheels himself. I tried everyone else and noone offers the service. I'll ask him to post up some pics the ones he sent me were pretty awesome.
