ok so I have bought a used set of alloys with the intention of getting them
refubed but alittle unsure as to what the best method is.
i just bought some work emotions d9r alloy in 18” the wheels do have
some light cubing on all four of the alloys nothing seriously only very light
i want to get them Ina similar or slightly darker colours to the jr’s below
I think they call it hyper black or similar to xxr black crome.. I’m just looking for
advise, I’ve read threads about it been not a good idea to powder coat wheels..
also if anyone knows of any decent alloy repair / paint places in Surrey
coud you let us know
cheers CSF

Following; put off refurbing mine for ages as there are only powder coaters down here. I had previous wheels wet painted and they were excellent for 3 years, but that firm is too far away now. There's a lot of heat cycles in powdercoating.
A good paint job is best imo,I had a set of standard fit OZ on my old P1 powder coated by a firm in,I think Northampton,collected,powder coated and delivered back to me-looked absolutely fantastic,trouble was,when I had wheels balanced after new tyres,the coating started peeling off when the old weights were removed,it wasn’t a cheap job,cost around £360 iirc,this was around 12-13 years ago,I may have just been unlucky but I have had a few sets refurbed (painted) since and had zero problems,so this would be my choice every time,hope this helps
iv had loads and loads of set of wheels powder coated ,, currently have two sets on my cars ,, never had a problem with any of them and have done loads for other people aswell and never had any come back with problems ,, I always go with powder coat
