nastnas 9 Report post Posted April 4, 2013 Some wheels can be damaged by sand blasting... Check the Grit before you get it sand blasted. Cheers, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HaNs 226 Report post Posted April 4, 2013 Make sure they dont use steel grit as it impregnates the surface with ferrous properties Just call around the large powder coaters and they should be able to sort you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MLM 57 Report post Posted April 17, 2013 I powder coated my wheels. see here http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....c=26638&hl= Excellent result and finish and not too bad dollar wise either from memory. Prices are in the tread somewhere. If powder coating keep the bolt face and bolt holes clean with tape/corks otherwise you will need to clean them afterwards to avoid wheels loosening as the powdercoat softens from heat and will creep. Cost wise you can paint is cheapest but the cured finish of powder will last longer than most diy paint ups. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
