Restoring these alloy MTB rims with JB Weld and elbow grease

No! We did not actually list these for sale on Craigslist. This video was just for fun. Today, Kevin terrorizes my workshop, trying to restore these alloy mountain bike wheels so they at least look new.

Years ago, Kevin used to repair alloy car wheels for a living, so I challenged him to repair a set of bike wheels. The wheel had a huge dent in it, and a nice split where it was joined during manufacturing. The wheel would not hold air, even with plenty of sealant. Kevin was able to get the wheel looking good again, and even hold air! But did that new paint job survive the rigors of mounting a tire? Watch to find out.
