What do you think about his price? It seemed a little steep to me compared to my last powder job on some wheels, but thats my only point of comparison.
Was that Classic Coatings or Racine Flame Spray? That does seem a little pricey with the charge extra for coating the inside of the tubing. Check with Jet-Hot Coatings. Back in the 1980s, they were the only company providing ceramic coatings, and we all had to send our parts to them. Check also some of the other coaters that are outside of your immediate area...for example, I send my engine bearings and some of my firearms-related parts to Calico Coatings on the east coast. There is Performance Coatings in Washington that does a lot of volume for out of state orders.
