virgo refinishing 200 1981

I do not think a filler will work on the bead because a tire mounting machine would wreck it. Interior dings can and should be filled. Auto paint stores carry aluminum filler for this purpose. A good epoxy primer also tends to fill fine surface scratches. For curb rash at the bead, and air grinder followed by 400 grit wet dry works if the rash is not too severe. But it is not difficult to spray them yourself, any auto paint store can match Volov 130 silver metallic. Probably not worth setting up for less than 3 sets of Virgos though. I have done a couple dozen sets of Virgos, Dracos, Novas and one set of Hydras. Also paint solvents are toxic to some extent and paint strippers are lethal if not handles correctly.
