Guest jimmylad455 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 noticed last week my paint is getting a bit bubbly on the wheels, is powder coating the answer to this problem. if so how much and where around the leeds area can i look to get it done. would have to be a ride in ride out place as my paddock stands arnt that cracking to have it stood with no wheels on.or is there an alternative to powder coating, dont say polishing please am not a shiny type of guy. thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest scol1 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Fraid it'll have to go on the paddock stands.I don't know anywhere that would do ride in ride out for powdercoating.Took my wheels off,tyres off,bearings off then took wheels to 'Metal Magic' in Barnsley,cost £72.00 for both wheels coating in 'smoked chrome' (looks like polished alloy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ninja-Bear Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I had mine black gloss powder coated, £80 the pair, fecking awesome look and quality, but was done up her in the North East so can't recommend anyone close to you, but takes about 3 days so no ride in and out.
