I love this job

Kind greetings to Zak! Tadek you did a really nice job man! 👍🏼

Bravo.perfect

Where are you based, address pls

What size filler rod did you use?

I HV this experience.. am in Nigeria abuja

My experience with our local shops I can buy brand new wheels for the same money as powder coating old wheels.

Thanks for the explanation, basically what you’re saying is that powder coating is tougher, BUT if someone brushes acid on my wheels I need a refurb regardless, if someone blow torches my wheels I need a refurb (and tyres 😂) regardless, if someone knives my wheels I need a refurb regardless and if I kerb the wheels I need a refurb regardless. I’m not against powder coating and have done it many times but I would have focused more on the longevity and devised an accurate test that shows no damage to the powder coated wheel but ultimately they are soft metal and regardless of the finish, if you touch a kerb they’re done.

Also, the paint is solvent-based. And the powder coat is polyethylene-based. Polyethylene can contain solvent as well as acids. Your tests are inconclusive because you’re not testing properly. Tried touching that powder coat with a bunch of heat and it will boil and burn right off. Just take the paint. But you are not testing properly solvent-based and polyethylene would be heat best to break it down.

Better test would have been to drive it in to the curb and show results..

“Paint lasts 6 months” 😂 paint will last decades if treated well.

How much does a repair like that cost ?

Thats badass skills, wish i had someone in my city or near which to can do this...

been in the wheel business 23 years sorry the wheel is unsafe with that kind of damage looks good and you have great skill but should not have been fixed

incredible re-manufactured techniques to new.

Well overpriced was quoted 700 for 2 wheels lost your mind

Really good video Thanks I will choose the powder coating for my rims

Watched for the first time today. Superb insight.

How much would something like this cost

Perfection 😊

I cannot believe the owner of that merc put that wheel back on his car that wheel should have been put in the recycling bin there is no way that wheel is structurally sound

So powder coat all the way....I already knew this....great vid It looks like you guys are very good and love what you do...when i need need some wheels done i will use you

Where can we find you i got alloys that needs fixing

Excluding 100% show wheels, powder coat for sure. It doesn't look quite as good but the durability really is on another level.

Nice 👍. What was the cost ?

Nice job. But is it really worth it fix it or just buy a new rim…

Love this video..i was considering whether to use powder coat or spray paint on my rims..now its definitely powder coat!

How much did it cost ?

maa shaa Allah,,,,

I guess my wheels are good then. :)

I have the EXACT same damage to my rim that just happened this last winter, dang snowplow covered up a HUGE pot hole and I nailed it.

Your prep for welding and welding is dissaster. Holes in weld is there, but you say "there is no sign of welding" oh yes it is.

Very nicely done video. I get your point that powder is more durable but not indestructible. I am on the market for a good powder coat place in my local area

If you think about the applications in real life. With the painted wheels you've literally got 1 life, once they're scratched, it sticks out like a sore thumb and you're through to metal, it's softer so the gash is deeper. With powder coated wheels, they're far harder to scratch through to metal so if you did the exact same damage, in real life, your probably not going to see metal. Not to mention if you got your tyres changed, they're going to get scratches if they're regular paint. I've got loads of experience with both.

Only one thing you didn’t diamond cut the AMG logo on the wheel but left it coated all black

That is absolutely amazing job

Great video man. I am about to get mines powder coated next week regardless of the benefits I knew before this video. Now I am more than happy to get it done and can't wait. Thanks again for this video 👍

wow, thats a really nice job, i was not expecting that to come out so well,

that looks amazing...what would soomthing like this cost..?..

Where are you based?

Mad unkz wasn’t a professional powder coater ? He’s came out good , until it got thrown across the car park 👍

Video basically shows me that painting is just fine for wheels

Good skill

You could hide your bias for the powder coat a little better.
