As above , i always thought the finish on my dymags wasn't the best but after having a look tonight it looks proper shit.
I know that dymags have to have a special paint/finish on them but should they be like this?

What do the people that did it say?
Looks gash, shame mate.
They should re-do it for free - as the finish they supplied is not fit for purpose/is substandard

Im worried that its reacting and eating my wheels.

lol i painted them although thats a reaction, they didnt leave me like that. Thats no excuse tho and id gladly redo them for you but one thing i will say tho is that the mag was extremely pitted under that paint.

Who ever painted them before kris had them shot blasted which is a big no no with mag wheels, i had them chemically stripped which revealed what was underneth. No idea why the paint reacted, maybe had something to do with the pitted mag maybe not but id have another go at them if you like.

sounds like a bit of a specifc Mag ballache.
On the Munky side, I have a set of painted wheels and they are bob on.
If I had Mag, I'd want a proper* full on job doing to to them due to their well known issues...it sucks arse that they are so tough to deal with.
*@ Mr L - I know you do a great job..but to know Mag...is tough so IMO no slugs in your potatoes.

Just having a look online and its going to cost a min of £200 before i start posting them to get done but i dont want it to happen again , No disrespect to you tony but im going to email a few company's and get an opinion from them about it.
Hmmm what to do?!
