Diamond cutting is a specialist process where a thin layer of metal is precision-machined from the wheel face using a CNC lathe. This creates a bright, metallic, factory-style finish with sharp contrast between painted and machined areas.

When properly prepared, lacquered and maintained, diamond cut wheels can last for years. However, because the finish is exposed metal under lacquer, they can be more sensitive to corrosion if damaged. We apply high-quality lacquer to maximise durability.

Not all wheels are suitable. The wheel must have enough material thickness to safely machine. Wheels can only be diamond cut a limited number of times in their lifetime. We always inspect and advise before carrying out work.

No — the diamond cutting process itself does not weaken the wheel when done correctly. Structural integrity is always checked before machining. If a wheel has cracks or severe damage, we’ll repair or advise accordingly.

Turnaround time depends on condition and workload. Many diamond cut refurbishments are completed within 2–4 days. Contact us with photos and we’ll confirm exact timing.

Yes — diamond cutting requires specialist CNC machinery and additional finishing stages, which makes it a premium service. It delivers a sharper, high-end finish compared to standard painted refurbishments.
