Before	After

Powdercoating

Powdercoating is a more advanced method of applying a new finish to a steel wheel. Powdercoating provides a durable finish which resists cracking, peeling, fading, or marring. Powdercoating offers excellent uniformity without sags, drips, or other surface irregularities. Powdercoating provides a longer lasting finish and is far more superior than other organic coatings.

Benefits of Powdercoating

• Decreased chance of air loss
• Longer rim life
• OSHA compliance
• Professional appearance
  

Our Process

• Remove: We remove all old wheel weights and valve stems.
• Powerwash: An industrial strength powerwasher is then used to remove any road grime and grease that may still be on the wheel.
• Inspection: We check for obvious cracking and other defects that would render the wheel unusable. The bolt holes are checked for runout.
• Sandblast: The wheel is then inserted into a machine that rotates the wheel while sandblasting it down to bare metal. This ensures that all of the old paint is removed throughly.
• Reinspection: Now that we're down to bare metal, we can spot even the smallest of cracks at this point. The wheel is now moved onto our monorail system. It ensures that the wheel stays clean before it is powdercoated.
• Powdercoating: The powdercoat is then applied.
• Curing: The wheel is then moved down our monorail to the oven. The wheel spends about 15 minutes curing inside a 1200 degree oven.
• Final Inspection: A final look-over is preformed. New valve stems are installed before leaving the door.
