    Default Powder Coating for Metal Rims

    I have a couple of sets of rims I am looking to get powder coated. Does anyone know a place in Sydney? If so what’s a rough guide to price per rim. And do I need to prep them first.

    Cheers

    they will need to be taken back to bare metal. If you get them sandblasted you may want to check them before they get powder coated as you may wish to prep them a bit after (ie hitting them with some sandpaper to smooth out any remaining imperfections

    there is a guy named Vinny in greenacre (Beresford Ave) that does it

    i think it is called MK sandblasting and powder coating. Fonzy would also e able to vouch for him too

    he did my car shell and all my suspension parts

    cheers

    Thanks
    I have a look for MK Sandblasting as Greenacre as its just around the corner. I have a feeling this could become addictive and I will finish up coating more than just my rims. I will let you know how it goes.
