NOVA powdercoating...

I know this has been brought up before but I am having a problem finding a shop to powdercoat my wheels. I have a small one car garage which makes it difficult for me to remove my own wheels to bring them to the shop. I found a shop down in fredericksburg that would let me drop the car off and they would remove the wheels and do everything for me. The guy from that shop sent me an email last week that said he was closing up the shop and wouldnt be able to do my wheels.

I have found plenty of places that will powdercoat wheels in NOVA but none that will allow me to drop the car off with them to remove the wheels for me. Anyone know of any shops that will do this?

thanks,

SHIZ

Did it look like he would be able to remove my wheels for me? did he have a lift or anything in the shop?
