The alloy wheels I bought some weeks ago came with a spare in very good condition.
Very good condition except for a small area of corrosion on the rim (I suspect due to an old wheel weight). Since the corrosion extended to under where the rim of the tyre would sit, I didn't want a new tyre putting on until after the corrosion had been treated.
This morning I ordered a Silver Sparkle touch up pack STC8927VT (Note - I thought this is an aerosol - but it is actually a tube with brush) from www.brit-car.co.uk, and proceeded to remove the corrosion with a (cheap copy of a) Dremmel and smooth the surface with 400grade wet and dry.
I then masked and etch primed the surface and then gave the area a coat of primer.
When the silver paint arrives I will finish the job
