ive just been quoted a price for powder coating my wheels , if i bring them without tyres and discs they will remove bearings (front wheel) chemical strip blast and de-gas and mask off and coat them any colour £110 for the pair , does that sound resonable ??????

I pay about 90 quid a pair for a straight colour and have to deliver them completely stripped !

Its reasonable, nicer colours candys and special effects are 130 ish

I was quoted £35 each wheel to have it stripped / blasted and coated in a colour of my choosing.

Powder coat powder has gone up a lot of late, my guy has put mine us as well.
I can get them done for £65 pair, inc new bearings in from wheel. ( for black or white, prob more for any weird colours)

My friend just his blade wheels done in Yellow for £50 at a local powder coaters in Hampshire- that included blasting of some sort to remove the old (hard as nails) paint that was already on there - I'll find out the name of the company and post it up later :smile:
