You mentioned you weren't sure if you were going to use 20% or 30% gloss. The new wheels are what % gloss?

Ok, I finally go my wheels back from the 2nd powder coater, they came out awesome! much better then the first time around. These guys were recommended by Berk and were very professional. I decided to go with the Matt Black rather then the gunmetal because it was too hard to find a color, they look so different on the little painted swatch samples, so the safe bet was to go with the black.

Thanks for everyones help, it looks like it was a split between the 2 colors on the poll

I attached a pic of the 1st powder coaters attempt at doing it. These were the wheels after I unmounted them, you can literally peel the powder off with your fingers.

Good thing is, they gave me my money back, without a fight
