    Hi All,

    Can anyone suggest companies in Dublin (or around Dublin) that offer this kind of service?
    I want to have alloys of my merc to be polished in mirror finish. Would be interested in diamond cut as well.

    Any suggestions? :)

    Before embarking on this road, ask yourself one question...

    Are you a rapper?

    I'm yet to hear of anyone doing diamond cut finish properly that isn't anything but a temporary measure. And that's on getting wheels that were originally diamond cut refurbished, I can't imagine anything that was originally satin would fare any better.

    I have a set of diamond cut 4 spoke alloys on my MkII RS2000.

    As below. Lepsoms did them years ago and they are still perfect.

    No, DepecheMode-er mostly. And retired old fart going by your logic (because it's Mercedes). :D

    No, they weren't. They are monoblocks with a flat surface so suitable for mirror polish or diamond cut. Car is black CLK conv. so should look good.
