Minor wheel scratches are already a common problem faced by many private cars. Is it necessary to repair the slight scratches on the surface of the wheel hub? This topic will be discussed next. We also shared some thoughts on minor wheel scratches.

Minor wheel scratches needed to be repaired according to the situation, and a professional wheel repair lathe is required at the same time. Different wheel repair machines are used for different wheel damage repairs. We are also a professional manufacturer of wheel hub lathes.

If it’s just a slight scratch without exposed primer, there’s no need to repair it. After all, it will only affect the beauty of a small hub. In addition, the original gloss of the outline is very bright, which is difficult to find without careful observation. Whether to repair depends on the severity of the hub scratch.

If all the hubs have minor wheel scratches, they should be repaired. If they are not fixed, the damage to the hubs may be deepened, resulting in driving safety risks. The scratches left after scraping may cause the hub to oxidize and the paint on the hub to fall off, which will affect the service life of the hub over time, so the hub repair has significance.

However, Minor wheel scratches should be reminded that hub repair is not a panacea. If the scratches left by scraping are deep, it may lead to hub deformation or notches and cracks. In these severe cases, it is best to replace the hub with a new one, and safety is the most important.

The daily maintenance of the wheel hub is also essential. When the temperature of the wheel hub is high, it should be cooled naturally before cleaning. The hub can not  be  cleaned with cold water. Otherwise, the aluminum alloy wheel hub will be damaged, and even the brake disc will be deformed, affecting the braking effect. In addition, cleaning the aluminum Taijin hub with detergent at a high temperature will cause a chemical reaction on the surface of the hub, lose luster and affect its appearance.
