powdercoat or paint them??
Should I powdercoat out paint my stock wheels??? I want to keep them fir the winter when I get some aftermarket wheels so guys that have painted ones how do you like them and ones that have them powercoated how do you like them
I have had my stock wheels painted for a year and a half now. They went through one winter and two summers. they look great for the first few months. Eventually they will get an occasional chip or two, which isn't bad but they will loose the super clean look that everyone wants on their car. So short term its a great cheap way of doing. So you basically pay for what you get. Be sure to prep them well and use primer, paint, and a few coats of clear. You want it to have a strong bond. But powder coating is a durable long term way of doing it. They will Stay "super clean" for a-lot longer.
powder coating will weaken the wheels and cant be touched up if chipped or anything..painting would be my choice it can be touched up and put on heavy so if anything minor happens you can wet sand a buff... then good as new
