: I called a local Southern California powder coating place yesterday...and they wanted $75 each...that $375...is it worth it? I know that they sandblast them first...will they come back showing all the small pits?..or is the coating thick enough to cover pits?...I know the stuff is durable...that just seems like a bunch of money...
I tracked down a chap that does powder coating here in Red Deer, Alberta and have had six wheels done; sandblasted and powder coated Tacoma Cream... and it nearly an identical match to the paint chip....$35.00 Cdn per wheel....for you Yanks, with our dollar what it is right now, if any of you live near the border... try the northern climbs for cheaper rates.
