What is mobile alloy wheel repair?

Mobile alloy wheel repair means we come to your location — home, workplace, or dealership — with a fully equipped mobile workshop. Your damaged alloy wheels are repaired on site, saving you time, transport costs, and the hassle of leaving your car at a garage.

Regular service areas include Geneva, Lausanne, Vevey, Montreux, Aigle, Yverdon-les-bains, Neuchâtel, Fribourg, Bern, Biel/Bienne. We are also willing to travel further for regular customers or dealerships.

We repair painted and diamond-cut alloy wheels up to 23” in diameter. Common repairs include:

  • Scratches and scuffs
  • Curb rash (curbing damage)
  • Corrosion and peeling lacquer
  • Small dents and cosmetic marks

⚠️ Please note: bent or cracked rims cannot be repaired for safety reasons. For a quote, simply send us clear photos of your wheels.

  • Single wheel: around 1–2 hours
  • Full set of 4 wheels: usually completed in a single day at your location

Our goal is always factory-quality results and customer satisfaction. The final finish depends on the depth of the damage, but in most cases wheels can be restored to a “like new” appearance. Check our Instagram gallery for examples. All repairs are guaranteed.

We mix paints individually for each repair to ensure the closest possible colour match. Because manufacturers often make slight variations, a perfect match may not always be guaranteed. For the best results, we can refresh all four wheels together at a discounted rate, ensuring they look uniform and as good as new.

All our technicians are trained automotive painters with many years of experience in bodywork and refinishing. They also receive specialised training on diamond-cutting and wheel repair equipment.

Yes. We safely remove your wheels, repair them inside our mobile workshop van, and then remount them using correct torque settings.

Lease companies charge approximately 400 CHF per wheel for damage. We can come to you and repair those wheels, saving you nearly 1000 CHF.

Selling your car privately usually achieves the best price, but whether you are looking to sell privately or to trade in, fixing up your wheels is essential to get you the best deal.

Damaged Wheels Can Reduce Your Car’s Value by >10%

When selling your car, appearance is everything. Scratched or scuffed wheels:

  • Lower buyer confidence and raise doubts about hidden issues.
  • Spoil the overall look of your car.
  • Suggest possible suspension or other damage.

A mobile service means:

  • No downtime – your car stays with you.
  • No transport costs – no need to drive to a bodyshop.
  • Convenience – we come to your home, work, or dealership.
  • Professional results – repairs are carried out on site with specialist equipment.

Your wheels will be clean and ready to use after refurbishment, and they will not need cleaning

However it does take about 48 hours for the lacquer to fully cure, this depends on ambient conditions. 

We recommend you do not wash your wheels or put them into storage bags for a at least 4 days after refurbishment. And always follow our safe cleaning advice below.

Brake dust is corrosive, and therefore you should look to clean your wheels every 2 weeks.

pH-neutral, acid-free wheel cleaners

Soft wheel brushes or microfiber mitts

Separate cleaning tools used only for wheels. Since the wheels are generally more dirty than the rest of the car you should not clean the rest of the car with the same items as the wheels!

Acidic or aggressive wheel cleaners

Household detergents or degreasers

Abrasive sponges or hard brushes

Automatic car washes with harsh wheel brushes

Apply a wheel sealant or wax every 2–3 months. A good quality wax or sealant will make future cleaning so much easier.

Consider ceramic wheel protection for longer-lasting results

Protection reduces brake dust adhesion and makes cleaning easier

Kerb damage or visible corrosion

Bubbling or peeling lacquer, especially on diamond-cut wheels

Stains that do not clean off
