Sup everyone
How much would it cost to powder coat 4 turbo II rims.
and does any one have a pic to shown the results.
thanks Matt22

 

i was wondering the same thing.
but my friend has his done for around 300 all 4 wheels

 

What’s the advantage of powder coating them over just a good two-part enamel epoxy?

 

Hey Icemark
I guess there wold be no difference.
Using the epoxy would be cheaper.
well i will have to see what happens.
all depends on what its gonna look like.
Thanks Matt22

 

If we are talking about rims then the cheapest one i found was 50 bucks a rim.

 

where can i find some on those 2 part enamels?

TIA!

 

Actually taking to a couple of body shops this week, they say they all use VHT paints on wheels,"VHT polyurethane wheel paint is specially formulated to protect wheels from extreme temperatures, salt, sand, brake dust and rocks. It is formulated to resist chipping, fading, cracking and oxidation."

Online I found it at: http://www.racesearch.com But it might be at other places as well.

colors:

Aluminum SP181
Gloss White SP185
Gold SP182
GM Rally Wheel Silver SP186
Satin Black SP183
Gloss Black SP187
Clear Gloss SP184
Ford Argent Silver SP188

 

I found this link on refinishing FD wheels as well:
