Default Wheels repair- Braze to fill curb rash?

I will be polishing a set of wheels I had around. I read somewhere that you can fill in curb rash with aluminum braze and polish it. I have looked around and found nothing on this. Any way to DIY fill the rash? I want to polish my wheels so no body filler.

Best to see a pro. Have you ever brazed aluminium in your life? Do you have a lathe that can spin a rim? Have you ever fixed a rim in this manor before?

Take it to a pro, they will let you know if it is possible to fix or not.

If you have a TIG welder, yes.
