Hi because a lot of pepole are posting up about referbishing alloys i thought i would show the progress of my new finished referbishment of my vt alloys;
first up go and buy what you need (halfrauds etc...)
Sanding paper 80
Wet dry 1200
Filler Primer x1
Primer x2
Colour x2
Laquer x2
Preferably have your original tyres taken off if not masking tape and newspaper galore!!!!!
Before; this is just one of them (the worst of course but they were all like this!)
I bought these alloys off Malky for £40 Cheers mate!
Prep;
Sanding paper 80
Wet dry 1200
Filler Primer x1
REMEMBER WHEN PREPPING IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO WET DRY BETWEEN EVERY LAYER OR YOU WONT HAVE A NICE SMOOTH SHINY END RESULT!!!
Spraying;
Primer x2
Colour x2
Leave 24hrs
TWO COATS
Lever 24hrs
TWO COATS
This part is pretty easy just be sure that you apply even coat in a brushing motion through-out (this avoids any paint running) in a dust free environment (garage, shed etc...)
Finshing;
Laquer x2
I did about 5-6 coats of laquer you can nver do enough
12hrs between each layer
24hr after the final layer
This stage is extremely important that there is no dust, hair, dirt anything in the air because as you know laquer is see-through so anything that sticks to the alloys when laquering will become apart of the alloy so be carefull!!!!
There you are the finished product
I then bought some TOYO PROXIES
Had them fitted...
well worth it took me a full month, remember not to rush it if you want a perfect end result!!! stand back and admire youre hard work 
Cheers

- Sand out the alloys all over with the paper to get all of the original laquer and colour off the alloys (if required use a wire brush on the parlicularly bad parts)
- Wash
- Wet dry untill the alloys are completely smooth
- Wash
- Filler Prime (this fills in any scratches and bubbling, that you sanded out)
