Hi guys. I have just bought another set of wheels for our car but I am thinking of painting/powdercoating them a gunmetal colour. I have done a search and read through all the threads but still have some questions.
So my question is - what is better, painting or powder coating? The car in questions occasionally drives down dirt roads so I am going to need a finish that can stand up to that. Will either finish get chipped or become dull? Is it possible to get a shiny finish with powder coating? I was also thinking of having a metallic finish. Is this possible with powdercoating? I am after a professional finish so I don't want to paint them myself. How are stock wheels finished from factory? I assume they are painted? |
