1. from the powdercoating shop
2. whatever brand the powdercoating shop uses
3. whatever the powdercoating shop does
-Basically they run an electric charge through the wheel, spray the wheel with "powder", which is attracted to the wheel, and bake the wheel so that the powder adheres to the wheel.
4. it turns out well.

Now quit using caps, pick up a phone book, and find a shop that does powder coating.

Did you try looking at home depot? You cant powder coat unless you have invested thousands of dollars into equpiment.

Ah, what a wonderful thread. Like others have said, check out powder coating places, unless you want to start a business of your own. Usually they can color match anything for you, and have a catalog of samples to look through.
