You forgot grinding.
BMW wheels are typically powder coated. They are not wet painted. Repairs are typically done with wet paint to match the powder color. There are some shops that powdercoat wheels, but this is typically more $. And, I think the lip of the 19s is polished which means an aluminum polishing wheel is required to refinish the edge once its filled. Then it gets a clear on top of the polish. Not an easy repair.
