Info on Powdercoating or Polishing stock wheels
Can you members out there give me some details about powdercoating the stock wheels
I was thinking either white, black, or chrome powdercoating
Any pictures, pricing, and shop locations in florida that do this would be appreciated.
Also, about the polishing part. If the powdercoating is too expensive and that won't take much since I have so many other bills on the car, I will try to polish them myself.
I have heard that I should go from a 150 grit to 220 to 300 something and maybe even to 400 and then use a buffing wheel and rouge to polish them.
If anyone has done this please post some instructions and things you recomend and problems you encountered.
thanks everyone

My car is vintage red now but in a week soon to be another red
I love how polished looks
I changed my mind about powdercoating black that looks bad I think
never seen chrome powdercoating
white may look ricey also
i think polishing is best and cheapest and I will put forth the time to complete it.
I'll pm him thanks
