Can you have a polished lip if you're having your wheels powder coated

Or does it have to cover the whole area to seal correctly

you can have them powder coated clear after the lips been machined sealing the whole wheel.

Excellent, cheers

A note of caution, make sure the powder coaters are aware that this is what you are going to do, and make sure who ever you get to do the machining is aware that they are coated, not painted.

Powder coating, although more scratch resistant than paint, is also much more prone to chipping if not handled correctly.

Thanks,

I want to have my wheels powder coated a dark colour and the rim diamond cut (or at least very shiney). If I ask for them to be coated clear afterwards would that be ok?
