Alloy Wheel Powder Coating in Newport

A tough, durable finish in any colour, from classic silver to custom hues. Full strip and recoat for lasting results.

Powder coating creates a tough, durable acrylic finish that bonds directly to the metal, wrapping around the entire wheel for full coverage. It's more resistant to chips, scratches and general wear than traditional spray paint.

Our comprehensive strip-and-recoat service starts with full preparation, followed by a baked-on powder coat primer, your chosen colour, and a clear lacquer finish baked at 180°C to lock everything in.

How it works

How we powder coat your alloy wheels

Every set of alloy wheels and rims gets the same full treatment in our Newport workshop, carried out in-house by Carl, our workshop manager, and Wiktor. This is a strip and recoat, not a quick blow-over on top of the old paint.

  1. 01

    Checked and stripped

    Tyres come off and every wheel is checked for buckles and cracks. The old finish is chemically stripped and blasted right back to bare metal, so corrosion has nowhere to hide.

  2. 02

    Kerbing and scuffs repaired

    Kerb damage, scrapes and scratches are ground out and repaired before any powder goes near the wheel.

  3. 03

    Primed, coated and baked

    A powder coat primer goes on first, then your chosen colour, then a clear lacquer, baked at 180°C to lock the finish in.

  4. 04

    Refitted and balanced

    Tyres go back on and are balanced, ready to collect. Most wheels are turned around in 48 to 72 hours.

If we find a buckle or a crack we call you before going any further. Straightening is £96 per wheel and crack repair £126 per wheel, both including VAT. See wheel straightening and welding.

Powder coating or a spray respray?

A sprayed wheel is a layer of paint sitting on the surface. Powder coating bonds to the bare metal and wraps around the entire wheel for full coverage, so it stands up to chips, scratches and everyday wear far better than traditional spray paint. For every other repair we carry out, see alloy wheel refurbishment and repair.

Powder coating or diamond cut?

If your wheels have a bright, machined face with fine lines across it, that is a diamond cut finish and it has to go back on a lathe rather than be coated. We do both under one roof: see diamond cut repairs.
