Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
Here you go buddy. Blasted bare, powdered with rally wheel silver, cured, powdered with clear and baked again. I think they look great.
The pictures aren't so hot because the lighting in my shop is weak, but they look great in the sunlight. Hope you like them ! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Regards, Kevin

Re: Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
TX, When/If you do something with the coating that looks like polished aluminum ( I think its called chrome-look), I'd like to see pics of it.

Re: Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
I've got a 71-72 hood latch. No grille support right now. If you would like to send me yours, I can get you a 2 day turnaround max. Possibly 1 day, depending on whether I'm on shift at work the day they arrive here.

Re: Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
Nice work on the rally wheels Kevin, those turned out nice. Quick question, did you have any issues w/ the crevice area (the part between the rim and the center piece of the wheel)? I know that tcb-1 had some wheels PC'd and they ended up bubbling out and ruining the finish. After reading several posts from his thread we weren't able to come to a final conclusion if it was caused by poor cleaning by the PC'er or just an impossible item to PC.

Re: Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
I was wondering how it would look on the 17.5" dually wheels that came on my '67 C-30. It really doesn't matter what you do it on, I'd just like to see it beside something that is polished aluminum maybe. I don't expect it to look like chrome, but if it looked something like polished aluminum (basically better than silver paint) I'd consider having them done. I can buy tires for them.

Re: Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
If the wheels are decent without too much paint or rust, it runs about 30-40 a wheel for turn key job, blasting, powder and clear coat.
Figure an extra 10 per wheel for lots of extra paint that I have to remove.

Re: Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
I wil get the latch and support out later this week. They have been blasted,primered and painted with rustoleum so they should clean back up easily in your cabinet. I will pm you when they go out and paypal you the money for return shipping etc. thanks Harold

Re: Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
Kevin, they look nice.
I had my rallye wheels powder-coated about three years ago. When a tire shop was removing them, they chipped the finish trying to remove the police cap. I talked to my friend who did the coating, and he said he can mix some powder with acetone and touch it up. How would you go about touching up a chip? Is he right about the procedure? Your prices are right on. My wheels were new, from Wheel Vintiques and I paid $150 for four wheels, in red.

Re: Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
your too cheap, and looks like you know what your doing which amazingly is not the norm in the PC business. There are probably a dozen shops here in OKC and probably 2 or 3 actually know what they are doing.

Re: Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
Kevin,
Can you do a '69 grille? My truck has a new grille but the guy I bought it from tried cleaning it with a solvent that completely etched it. I've wondered about the chrome powdercoat. Will it work on that thin metal? |

Re: Powdercoated rally wheels for Matt67350
It's going to be about a month before I can do anything as large as a grille. I'm building the bigger oven currently. It will be 6 feet long, 4 feet high and 2 feet wide. I should be able to do bumpers, grilles, rear control arms, rearend housings and the like.

Superior Finish off Waterloo rd in Edmond. Wesley is the only guy I will take my powdercoating too even if he is 60 miles from me.
