    I used to work for a powder coating shop that did not specialize in wheels, we only did them occasionally. We never went this far though. We would sand the wheel, power wash it, pre heat it, apply two coats, one clear coat, one color, and done. We also only charged like $200 for a set of 4 wheels tho. Stuff we mostly did was things like awning covers, decking screws, flag and tent poles, stuff that was cheap, high volume mass produced. So not as much time and care went into the details.

    • @claudes1973
      @claudes1973 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes.. most shops want only the wheels! I had called many many shops and only like 2 of them, you can take the entire vehicle in. Yes a little more expensive because they have to mount em back and balance but I don't have a way or time to only take in the wheels! Lol

    • @jonboatmorava9115
      @jonboatmorava9115 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      See the real issue is that people want the powder coater to do all that extra work for free. Like they just give away wheel balancer machines, weights etc then there's also the cost of extra insurance then not to mention the time. It costs to do the tire and valve stem removal.

    • @phillyphil1513
      @phillyphil1513 ปีที่แล้ว

      technically yes, one just has to do the "pre-work" of masking off the reverse area with the special heat resistant tape. you can briefly spot some of it being applied in the video on the back side of the wheel where the mounting surface mates to hub. since a wheel is a rotating object this area must remain flat/true so no powder goes there (same with bolt holts).

      @@giedrius2149 that would be °C for me.
      Yes 380 is way to high for spray coating wheels or thick box section steel tubing. It has a certain tolerance to the heat to its spec.
      The coating material is powder which is basically made up of fine plastic that melts on material, As for spray i powder coat metals desired colour and leave them in the oven at 220c for 10 minutes. Then they come out with a fairly smooth finish, leave them in 5 or more min longer then the material/coated powder will get too hot and melt or change to a burnt colour and start to drip because can't resist the heat after that time.

    At 3:06 this is where it goes off the rails. Painting a smooth surface without sanding before hand. This is why "hyper" finish wheels have peeling issues. You can apply a powder base, sand, apply a black coat THEN apply "hyper" or "liquid metal". This is why I can't stand these vendors that do this shit. Your process is wrong.

      Powder coating cost on a wheel usually is based on the size of the wheel. Around me east coast US a normal size wheel like in the video is around $100 -$130. If they are charging $300 you are getting ripped off bigtime.

      Why do you say that? Hot flocking is actually approved by many manufacturers of powder. I've had better results hot flocking especially in combating Faraday cage effect. Plus it shows the coating depth and finish easier. I've also done durability test on parts that were hot flocked over standard and didn't yield any different results.

    There are two major reasons that powder coat should NEVER be applied to wheels. For one, it can hide cracks in your wheel that can prove deadly later on. For this reason powder coated wheels are banned from many racetracks. Second, if you damage your powder coat there is no thing as a touch up. It cracks and crumbles and the entire wheel must be stripped and recoated. With paint you can just touch up the scratch. This is why no wheel manufacturer powder coats their wheels, because paint is by far the superior coating.

    First thing I do when I get a car with expensive black wheels is have them painted silver. Black wheels are one of the dumbest design trends ever. "Hey, let me paint these expensive wheels black so you can't see ANY of the details of my beautifully intricate wheels. I just love how my car now has 4 black blobs, 1 in each corner". Dumb.

    They look good for sure. My problem with it is the person doing the powder coating has to be meticulous and good. I have had powder coated wheels come back looking good but require lots of weight to balance because the powder coats on the wheels are very uneven. As long as this is done by individuals, it is extremely difficult to have even coating.

      Don't give out misinformation, you do not know what you're talking about. The powder has nothing to do with the wheel requiring lots of weights.

    • @garytsuikk
      @garytsuikk 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well, this is from my experience on my set of wheels that have been powdercoated. Prior to them being powercoated, the wheels are straight and I had no issues balancing them that require a significant amount of weights. All I am saying is if the spraying of the powder is done by a human, the quality can vary and if it is not done right you can have uneven layers which could make balancing difficult.

      @@garytsuikk I get what you're trying to say. You're wrong I've done thousands of wheels over the years. You don't know what you're talking about, how long have you been powdercoating? Mow many thousands of wheels have you made from a raw hunk of aluminum or a forging? Is the answer 0 to either of those if so you're not a source of information just opinion and yours is incorrect.

      Not sure if you actually read what I said or you just think you are 100% right all the time. It is not my opinion, it is my experience with the wheels that I got powder coated. I am not knocking on powder coating, I am just saying not all powder coater do a great job.
