The chap there professed to me that their machines (2 of 5 in Europe or UK apparently?) could put any tyre on any rim without leaving a single mark.

I can't remember where I read this but it was somewhere in the last day or two.
One of the refurbishment companies offered a service where they would send you a refurbished set of wheels sitting on the shelf on the condition that you sent your old wheels as part of the deal.
E46 M3 wheels with the diamond cut face was a prime example.
He then stopped this as the wheels being returned had often been refurbished too many times and he could no longer take a skim off the face to achieve the required finish. The aluminium was too thin and dangerous to take more.
