dinged powder coated rims

90civichbsi · #1 12-31-2001, 12:43 PM

i was drivin yesterday when a guy flashed his brights behind me in a big truck, and look back to see what it was, and popped up on a curb. i dented in my wheel a little and made some scratches. it was mainly cosmetic, but i was wanting some suggestions on where to go to get it fixed. Or if i scrathed one little bit of the powdercoat does that mean i need do get it completely redone? any help is appreciated

I would imagine youd have to get the wheel sandblasted and repowdercoated for the best look..

read that, depending on how deep the scrapes are you will proably will have to sand down too many layers to just replace the clear coat.
If so plan on powder coating and clear coating
