Who is the absolute best for refinishing fuch alloys. Al Reed?

DARISC

Yea. Salt of the earth people, Al & his wife Dianne. They care. I'd go nowhere else.

Al is a nice guy and did my wheels. But I have to say that Harvey Weidmann (sp?) is the absolute best. Search at the Early 911S bbs for comaprison photos and comments. HW charges more and takes longer.

Do you have Harvey's phone number? Is he in Ca.?

Harvey will be doing my wheels in RSR finish next time I have them done....until then a local shop polished the rims and I refinsihed the centers.

HW is in NoCal & AR is in SoCal. You can find their #'s in the numerous threads on Pelican and on the Early 911S bbs.

I think AR is near LA and that HW is in Chico, but not sure and don't have phone #'s handy.

BTW - if you just want a polished finish, maybe it doesn't matter. FOr satin of frosted it might -- it's not a big difference between the two -- I called it A- vs. A+ in the Early 911s where I put some pics.

You said "absolute best" so...

Ther eis also a guy in the midWest that does this and many have done it themselves, with lots and lots of labor involved... but that's more for absolute cheapest, IMO.

Lindsey Racing in Oklahoma City is also very good.
