Powered Coating Questions?

How does it hold up on wheels I'm not really sure how it works? If anyone's had it done how is it now? Is paint better?

Powder coating does cost more but IMO alot better than paint. I have a few wheels powdercoated and love it not sure of the exact method but it intales more than just spraying. Powder coating is more durable and will last longer.

NOT!! Leaving tire on is not true at all. Unless you own tires that can with stand 400 degrees for 15mins.

I own a powder coating system and have painted many rims.

Holds up well and is the way to go
