R50/53 Pep'r and Her New Kicks (Powder Coat Wheels)
They only charged $37.50 per wheel...$150.
The big ticket item was the bead blasting....$370
Our Mini wheel finish is of great quality and very hard to remove.

That is ok.....I am going to guess that "most" aftermarket wheels are just painted, so the bead blasting should be a lot less money. It was the factory finish that was hard to take off and the blasting companies charge per/hour. I also do not think the color of the finish had anything to how hard it was to remove. But I would recommend having whatever wheel you get blasted so that the powder coat has a good surface to bond with.
Some shops do both blast and coat, but just make sure they actually do the work......just play it up and tell them you want to snap some pictures of the progress for a blog. LOL
Hope this helps and do not worry about asking questions....that is what the forum is all about.
