As the title says I need 4 wheels sandblasted so i can get them painted. I tried the chemical stripper but that just didnt work all the way. So does anyone on here do sandblasting or know of a place to get it done at a good price.
New Image Coatings in Lino Lakes can get it done at a really good price. Just had them do my BBS's and they came out great! They can powder coat as well, obviously.
Any other places? Primo is little expencive, it used to be $200-220 for 16" wheels and now they want $280-300. Anybody can sandblast and powercoat for less than $230 for 16" wheels?
I don't know if this guy is still around, but he was cheap 3-4 years ago. (just blasting, not painting) Plastec Blasting 8351 Lake Drive Lino Lakes, MN 651-783-7322
Do you have their e-mail? The site says to e-mail them for quotes, but I don't see the address on there anywhere...
I just called them, don't have email. I think paint stripper is what I will try first and then sand it myself. I am still undesisive if I want to powercoat or paint them myself. This is winter setup and don't want to spend over $200 on it.
I think they blasted my wheels for about $35 each. I then had Ofspunk paint and clear coat them for me, and they turned out excellent (refer to profile pic).
If they're just winter wheels you might want to scuff them really good with a scotch pad, clean very thoroughly, then primer, paint, clear coat. Keep a full can of the color you used for touch ups. I should hold up really well as long as you prep good, use quality paint and don't run into anything too hard. Mike
