Ian/Matt,

My mag Marchesini's are showing signs of "filiform" corrosion under the paint finish..I was thinking of getting them stripped and recoated.
I rekon they need a "chemical conversion coating" (Alodine 1200) to etch the surface prior to coating.
Can you give me the number of the East Grinstead place and I'll check if they can do Magnesium Alloy wheels.
Ta,
Richard
