    Hi everyone,

    I'm looking at getting the colour of my wheels changed. But as the title suggest, what's the pros and cons of each one.

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks

    Depends on how high a quality finish you want. As a company that does powder coating we would say that spraying will give you the highest quality finish, subject to preparation. Powder coating is an industrial process that can give excellent results but is a bit hit or miss on occasions and is difficult to reverse. As for dipping we have no experience of this.;)

    The guy I use dips and strips everything prior to preheating and powder coating.
