powdercoating rims question
« on: March 23, 2018, 09:48 AM »
Wondering if its possible to powdercoat rims if I still want to ride the thing and if it'll scrape off with brake rub etc over time...?

Definitely possible to have them powder coated. I expect over time it would rub off from brake use but its a lot thicker than paint. Someone who has done this will probably pop along shortly and give you their experience.   :daumenhoch:
