  • Powdercoat

    What does it cost (roughly) to powder coat 4 wheels flat black? Is that (flat) tougher or will it hold up better than a semi-gloss or gloss coating?

    Also about how long should it take? few days/1 week?

    Thanks, never done this before.

    Places like Wheel Technologies in Farmers Branch will fix any rash/damage, true them up and powder coat them for $125 each. Ask them for a discount if you do all 4. 24hr turn around. They can dismount/mount your tires too.

    Last time I checked with a powder coater, they wanted $75 each to just coat them. That was probably 3 or 4 years ago.

    I'd go a satin black. Don't think the amount of gloss would make them any tougher but the more gloss, the easier to clean.

            Place in Denison called BA's Powdercoating does them normally for $240 a set, but he was having a special last week or so for $180 for a set.

            He just did the wheels on my '66 Chevy truck in metallic copper and they came out freaking awesome. I'll post some pictures of then when I get home. I can give you his number if you want.

              Its a solid black car Aaron. I logically picked black! Keep it simple stupid. Plus new shiny black car, flat black wheels is a tried and true combo.

              Copper hua? As a typical cant match shit guy, what other color would go good on a black car. No chrome at all on car.

              Not Aaron D.? Also are you the one that will come to your house and do pinstriping?

                keep in mind, the more gloss, the more it will show scratches. (in the clear)

                    Not Aaron D., but I am the one that will come to your house and do some striping.

                    What kind of car is it and what kind of wheels are they ? I've always been a fan of black on black, but that's just my opinion.
