Default Wheel re-rubbering

When I had some of my wheels re-done I found a small company who did conveyor belt and farm machinery rubber repairs and they did my wheels. Burnt all the paint off first, then 'stuck' rubber on wheel before trimming it to whatever section I wanted on a lathe. Really good and didn't cost very much, about £35 per wheel I recollect. That was a few years ago now and they look like new. The ones I had done were the narrower section front idlers.
