Powdercoating Issue. Grrrr!

so went to pick up some pieces I dropped off at the powdercoater today. everything was looking good (bumpers, sway bar) until I saw my 15 x 8 steelies. the narrow bridge between the rim and center section (where these pieces come together) had bubbled badly. obviously I said that they were to do them over. the kid that was there said that they have problems with these type of rims bubbling before during curing in the areas where mine had bubbled. I told them that I wanted them blasted and done again. pronto.

question. anyone else had this problem? ever? sound like bs? I wonder if it would be better to just have them blasted (again by the powdercoater) and take them to have paint put on them? Since there seems to be powdercoating issues with these type of rims, wonder if I should scrap the idea of powdercoat?

and thoughts???? it doesn't help that I am obsessive about quality!
