    Re: Protecting freshly powdercoated wheels?

    Not at all mate. 95% of tyres come off in our place, you also have to have major confidence in the people refitting the tyres!

    Can I just drop my car off with you or will I need to bring the wheels in Kev?

    Either or mate, we prefer just wheels but you can leave the car with us mate and we'll whip them off. Lot quicker just to bring the wheels in. Hope the RR day went well. Gaz's car made nice numbers!

    Tell me about it.

    I didn't have enough time to spray my Missus wheels so got my dad to powder coat them at work. She took it to a place near her dads work and they chipped it!

    I know a couple of guys who are good locally so it's usually not too bad!

    Our tyre changer would just have laughed! Can't be an easy job fitting rubber band sized tyres back on.

    Happens too often though sadly, bit of talent involved.

    Would probably need to leave the car with you as I've not got any wheels to put on it. RR was good Gaz's ST made nice figures for having just an exhaust and map, wish the meganes were as easy to tune lol.

    A good PC will have as little orange peel effect as possible (it'll never be glass smooth like paint though). These cheap places just slap it on after a rough as hell blast, so it looks a right dog.
