i know the rims in the before pic dont look too bad but there was some bad rust on the inside of the rim particularly on the lip inside.

Re: The Hammerite Way
Hi Tinus, I had the sandblasting done by Viking sandblasting in sbdc. I think the cost was about R150 per rim.
Alex the Hammerstein spray tins are about R100 a tin and two tins per rim.
