Default Pony Wheels Are Painted

I BOUGHT A SET OF PONY WHEELS FROM PRESTIGE MUSTANG IN GEORGIA. I WAS SOMEWHAT SHOCKED WHEN THEY ARRIVED TO SEE THAT THEY WERE PAINTED. I ASSUMED THEY WERE STEEL OF SOME SORT. WHERE THE PAINT RUBBED OFF I SEE WHITE (PRIMER MAYBE). WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT GETTING THESE REPAINTED OR CAN I DO IT MYSELF?

You can have them sandblasted and repaint them,or better yet,have them powdercoated.

To bad you don't live by me! I work at a factory, and we have both a sand blast booth and a powder coating system! I've done wheels, bike frames, etc... Go for the powder coating!


....wait I just looked at your home, and guess what you do live by me! WOW your just a 1/2 hour away! So what do you think?

Powdercoating is def the way to go. It will look better and last longer.

Yep I work in LaPorte, at the New York Blower company. So are you interested in some free work?

I like the look of that powder coating. Looks pretty sharp.

Powder coating looks the best. I'll stick my vote in for that.
