Is The Quality Of A Wheel Repair Affected By Cold Temperatures?

This is a great question!

The quality of a professional wheel repair can absolutely be affected by cold temperatures, depending on the repair process that is used.

  • For example, if a wheel is repaired by welding, cold temperatures can cause the metal to shrink or crack as it cools, which can weaken the repair and potentially cause it to fail over time.

  • If a wheel is repaired using an adhesive, it can take longer to cure or cure unevenly in cold temperatures, which can result in a weaker bond between the repaired part and the wheel.

  • Patch repairs are generally not affected by cold temperature because patching doesn't rely on a curing or heat process.

To maintain the quality of your wheel repair, our professional wheel repair artists work in the heat-controlled environment of our mobile workshop. This ensures that your wheels stay at the appropriate temperature throughout the repair process.

It’s vital to use proper repair procedures, the right equipment and materials, and to work in a clean, controlled environment to ensure the quality of the repair, regardless of the external temperature.
