Powder Coat Wheel
Powder Coating: Enhance and Protect Your Wheels
Powder coating is a superior alternative to traditional rim painting, offering both aesthetic appeal and enhanced durability. Unlike liquid paint, powder coating involves applying a dry colored powder to your rims using an electrostatic gun. The coated wheels are then baked in an oven, creating a strong, durable finish that is resistant to chips, scratches, and fading.
This process provides a number of key benefits:
Durability and Protection: Powder-coated wheels are more resistant to damage from road debris, weather, and corrosion compared to painted wheels. The coating forms a thick, protective layer that can withstand harsh environments, helping to maintain the appearance and integrity of your rims over time.
Ideal for Repairing Damaged Rims: If your rims have suffered from chips, scratches, Curb Rash!, or corrosion, powder coating is an excellent option for refurbishment. The process involves thorough cleaning and preparation, including removing any old paint and smoothing out imperfections, ensuring that the new powder coating adheres perfectly. This not only restores the rims but also extends their lifespan.
Faster Turnaround: Powder coating is quicker to cure than traditional paint, allowing for a faster turnaround. This means you can have your wheels ready in less time, without compromising on quality.
Customizable Aesthetics: With a wide range of colors and finishes availableโmatte, gloss, metallic, and even custom optionsโpowder coating offers extensive possibilities for personalization. Whether you want a bold, eye-catching look or a subtle, sophisticated finish, powder coating can deliver.
Choosing powder coating for your wheels not only enhances their appearance but also provides a durable, long-lasting solution, making it a smart investment for any vehicle owner.
Fully Customizable:
When customizing any part of your vehicle, you want it to reflect your personal style perfectly. The beauty of powder coating lies in its full customizability, allowing you to express your individuality with ease. Whether you want to match your carโs existing color or create a completely new look, powder coating offers limitless possibilities for personalization, giving you the freedom to achieve exactly the finish you envision.

Dismounting Tires:
The first step in the wheel restoration process involves carefully removing the tires from the rims. This dismounting process ensures that the rims are free for the subsequent preparation and coating procedures without risking damage to the tires.
Removing Valve Stems / TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems):
Next, the valve stems and TPMS units are carefully removed. These components are essential for monitoring tire pressure but must be taken out to protect them from the harsh conditions of cleaning, stripping, and coating. Removing them also allows for thorough access to the entire wheel surface.
Cleaning, Stripping, and Sandblasting:
The rims undergo a rigorous cleaning process to remove dirt, grease, and any residual contaminants. After cleaning, the old paint or coating is stripped away. Sandblasting follows, which involves blasting the surface with fine grit to remove rust and prepare the wheel for coating. This process also smooths out the surface, ensuring better adhesion for the new powder coating.
Repairing Curb Damage:
Before applying the new finish, any curb damage is meticulously repaired. This may involve filling in gouges, smoothing out scratches, and ensuring the rim’s surface is flawless. The goal is to restore the wheel to its original condition, if not better, before the new coating is applied.
Powder Coating:
The powder coating process involves applying a dry colored powder to the prepared wheel using an electrostatic gun. The wheel is then cured in a high-temperature oven, where the powder melts and bonds to the surface, creating a durable, smooth, and uniform finish that resists chips, scratches, and corrosion.
Remounting Tires:
Once the powder coating has cured and cooled, the tires are carefully remounted onto the rims. The valve stems and TPMS units are reinstalled, and the wheels are balanced to ensure a smooth and safe ride. The final result is a set of wheels that not only look brand new but are also protected against future wear and tear.
