Curb Rash Repair
Professional Curb Rash Repair
Scraped a curb? Curb rash can leave your wheels scratched, scraped or damaged, but it doesn’t necessarily mean the wheel needs to be replaced.
At Full Blast Wheel Repair, we specialize in curb rash repair and cosmetic wheel repair. Depending on the depth of the damage and the existing wheel finish, we can often repair the damaged area and refinish it to significantly improve the appearance of the wheel.
Can Curb Rash Be Repaired?
Yes. Curb rash can generally be repaired, but the appropriate repair depends on the depth of the damage and the type of finish on the wheel.
Minor to moderate scratches, scrapes and gouges can often be repaired as a localized cosmetic repair. Deeper damage may require a more extensive wheel restoration to properly address the damaged area and achieve the best possible finish.
If curb damage extends into a factory-machined portion of the wheel, there may be limitations to how closely the original finish can be recreated. We do not remachine wheels, but in many cases we can significantly improve the appearance of the damage while repairing the exposed area to help protect the aluminum from further corrosion.

Curb Rash Repair Frequently Asked Questions
Can curb rash be completely repaired?
Most curb rash can be significantly improved or repaired, but the final result depends on the depth and location of the damage and the wheel’s existing finish. Machined finishes, previous repairs, corrosion or severe damage can affect how closely the original finish can be reproduced.
Send us photos and get a free quote so we can evaluate your specific wheel and set realistic expectations before the repair.
Does curb rash mean I need a new wheel?
Usually not. Cosmetic curb rash alone does not necessarily mean the wheel needs to be replaced. Many scratched and scraped wheels can be professionally repaired.
If the impact also caused a bend, crack or other damage, additional repair may be necessary. Learn more about the different types of Rim Repair we offer.
Can you repair curb rash on machined wheels?
In many cases, we can significantly improve curb rash on a machined wheel, but there are limitations. Full Blast Wheel Repair does not remachine wheels, so damage extending into a factory-machined area may not be able to return to the exact original finish.
Send us photos and get a free quote so we can evaluate the damage and explain what results you can realistically expect.
Can deep curb rash be repaired?
Often, yes. Deeper curb damage may require more extensive repair or a full wheel restoration rather than a localized cosmetic repair.
