At DCA Wheel Refurbishment Ltd, we use a specialist alloy wheel CNC lathe called the Micro24. It provides a high level of precision, consistency, and quality. These advanced machines allow us to achieve a flawless finish while maintaining the correct wheel profile and safety standards.
Diamond cutting (also called diamond turning) is a precision machining
process where the front face of an alloy wheel is shaved on a CNC lathe using
a diamond-tipped tool. Unlike polishing (which smooths) or painting (which
coats), diamond cutting physically removes metal to create a bright, raw
aluminium finish with fine circular machining lines.
This method allows us to eliminate kerb damage, scratches, corrosion, and
surface imperfections with extreme accuracy.
Diamond cutting is a repair process for alloys with a diamond cut face only
with damage like
Our team in Tamworth, Staffordshire uses high-quality materials and expert
techniques to ensure every wheel leaves our workshop looking perfect and
built to last.
Getting your diamond cut wheels refurbished might sound complicated, but for you, the process is simple.
We take care of everything from removing the tyres and repairing the damage through to refinishing, diamond cutting and refitting your wheels.
Before we start, we inspect each wheel for damage such as kerb marks, corrosion, cracks or buckles.
This allows us to check that the wheel is suitable for refurbishment and identify anything that may need extra attention.
We’ll let you know if we find anything you need to be aware of.
The old paint and lacquer are completely removed from the wheel.
Rather than simply covering over the existing finish, this gives us a clean surface to work from and prepares the wheel for its new finish.
Kerb marks, scuffs and other surface damage are repaired and smoothed out.
If we discover a crack or buckle that requires additional repair, we’ll discuss this with you before carrying out any extra work.
We thoroughly clean and prepare the wheel, removing corrosion and anything that could affect the new finish.
Good preparation is one of the most important parts of achieving a finish that looks right and lasts.
The wheel is heated before the new coating is applied. This helps remove trapped gases from the aluminium that could otherwise cause problems with the finished surface.
It’s one of the extra preparation steps we take to get the finish right.
We apply a durable powder coating to create the base for the finished wheel.
The wheel is then heated so the coating cures into a strong, smooth finish.
Next, we apply the chosen colour to the wheel.
This could be the original factory-style colour or a different colour if you’re looking to change the appearance of your wheels.
This is where the diamond cut finish is created.
Your wheel is placed onto our specialist CNC lathe, which carefully removes a very fine layer from the front face of the wheel.
This removes surface damage and reveals the bright aluminium underneath, creating the distinctive diamond cut appearance.
The painted areas remain, giving the wheel its two-tone finish.
A clear powder coating is applied over the finished wheel to protect the surface and complete the look.
You can choose from gloss, satin or matt finishes depending on the appearance you want.
Finally, we refit the tyre, inflate it to the correct pressure and balance the wheel.
If we’re working on your vehicle, we’ll refit the wheel and tighten the wheel nuts to the correct setting.
Your wheels leave us fully refurbished, with the damage repaired, the colour restored and the distinctive diamond cut face recreated.
The result is a clean, fresh finish that brings your wheels back to looking their best and transforms the overall appearance of your car.
We provide the advantage of convenience, as you won’t need to leave your vehicle at a workshop for an extended period. It’s a time-saving option for individuals with busy schedules.
Thank you Bryan. Fantastic job on my Tesla wheels! Awesome service and awesome work. Highly recommend!
**5★** Absolutely delighted with the results. I brought my van in with the original silver factory wheels. They were stripped down and painted a deep, glossy black, and the transformation is incredible. The whole van looks completely different — sharper, more impressive, and far more premium. The finish is flawless with a proper depth to the colour, and the attention to detail was excellent. It’s given the vehicle a much stronger presence on the road. Couldn’t be happier with the work. Highly recommend if you’re thinking of refreshing your wheels or changing your look.
Incredible service, got me in very quickly and did a brilliant job. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be using DCA again
Brilliant service! Never got my alloys re done before but I will be back with the next car. Dimond cut to gloss black very happy with all work done even changed my bolts and tyres, Friendly service very knowledgeable and cared about the work. Best in Tamworth in my opinion very professional thanks Brian!
Bryan goes above and beyond. He cares passionately about delivering top drawer service. He understands how important immaculate alloys can be to car enthusiasts. Delivers on time and with a smile and offers advice on other aspects e.g paint remedies and tyre replacement. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Excellent service and a top quality job. They fitted me in at very short notice & could not have been more helpful. Would 100% use this company in the future.
What a relief to find a great place like this, excellent work and superb communications. Nothing negative to report about Bryan and his wife as they are a both great to do business with... Use them for your refurbs and you will not regret it. Highly recommended.....
Service was bang on, Finish is top notch and were completed in a short time even when another refurb specialist said couldnt be diamond cut again. Bmw 437m wheels looking factory fresh again.
Absolutely over the moon with the refurb Bryan at DCA did on my OEM 437M wheels. From start to finish the service was spot on. Very friendly guy, excellent workmanship, great comms throughout and you can tell he genuinely cares about the quality of his work. I went for the ferric grey and diamond cut finish and the wheels have come out looking absolutely stunning — better than I expected. The finish is clean, consistent and OEM+ quality. Bryan also took the time to explain the process properly and kept me updated throughout, which gave me a lot of confidence after previous bad experiences elsewhere. Turnaround was quick, attention to detail was excellent and the overall experience was professional from start to finish. Highly recommend DCA if you want your wheels done properly by someone who takes pride in their work.
I couldn’t be happier with the transformation that Bryan has achieved with my Audi A7 wheels. They were 11 years old, curb rashed, paint peeling and generally looking very sad. Now they’re absolutely mint plus the colour transition from standard grey to satin black makes them pop - just gotta get some new black centre caps to match now. I’m really happy with them, massive thanks to DCA Refinishing Ltd for a grand job 👍👍
Diamond cut wheels usually have a bright, shiny metal face with fine lines visible in good light. The inner areas are often painted a darker colour.
It depends on wheel condition and what finish you need. Send photos and we’ll confirm whether same day service is suitable.
Diamond cut faces are bare aluminium under lacquer. Sealing helps protect them, but care matters too. We’ll tell you how to look after the finish.
Same day service is available on some jobs. We’ll confirm turnaround once we’ve seen photos and wheel condition.
