powdercoating (MD)
So I was asking a friend about powdercoating my wheels. She works for a company that does sand/media blasting but they wok with another compay that does powdercoating. I asked her to look into it for me. She told me that since my wheels are aluminum that the powdercoat won't stick. I was like WTF? Others have gotten them powdercoated. So either they're stupid, or my wheels aren't aluminum. So who knows any place that can do powdercoating around here and how much do the charge? I'm thinking about getting my wheels done in silver. Either color match, or the same olor as the TC wheels.

I am a coater and can tell ya aluminum can be coated with no problem..as a matter a fact, i prefer it...i get a better blast profile, which makes the powder stick better, easier to clean from the start, and can be polished and candies really pop over it.....where are you located, i belong to a network and can push you in the right direction to a great custom coater.
