Plasti Dip vs Powdercoating Options

[M4ddoX]

The clear coat on my wheels have started to fad on the inside and I want to clean them up. I have seen all the videos of plasti coat and it looks good and I can replicate the colours I might want (either dark bronze or gunmetal) pretty easily and I can remove it if I dont like it but I want to see if anyone has experience with it. People have suggested to powder coat them but thats about 300-400 nzd (250-350 usd roughly). I have also heard peoples stories about powder coated wheels getting weaker in the baking process. Has anyone done either and could offer their experience with either or even suggest a better option.

PlastiDip I've heard different things about, but I suppose it's the better option if you aren't sure about color, considering it definitely won't last forever. But then again, if you do decide on which color you want and you're pretty confident about it, maybe it would be better to go with powder coating because it's more permanent.

My wheels are powder coated and before I got them done I asked a similar question. Overwhelmingly, it was suggested to go through with the powder coating. If you can pick a color that you think you'll be comfortable with for a long time and you don't plan on ditching your rims anytime soon, go for it. Anything you've read about powder coating ruining the structure of the wheels is BS from what I've found. A lot of people choose to get their wheels powder coated because it stands better against the elements and lasts longer than most other options; if there was such a risk of your rims falling apart I doubt it would be so popular. Get it done right and they'll turn out fine. I personally have had absolutely no issues with my wheels and I love them. So go for what you think would best suit your situation.
