im super pissed off today i have spent absolutly ages masking and painting my speedlines, i sprayed the spokes black the other week then finally got around to painting the rim silver today.
so i spent all day doing this give them a coat of silver all fine and dandy, another coat they looked spot on, i came bk to give them another coat and they had flipping re-acted i cant begin to tell u how pissed off i am. i really do feel like crying. so now ive gotta flat them down again n its going be a big ball ache flatting the reactions out im fed up, ahhhhhhhhhhhh

Gutted! I know how annoying it is, the same thing happened to me a few months back, although that was something to do lacquer I think. Time to get the contruction paper out and start rubbing the paint off I guess.

Preperation is the key.

ooooo lol i can see how gutted you are chap but its all in the preperation, when i did my cavi wheels i sanded them down then used a rough cloth and then used panel wipe before every coat - dont put the paint on to thick if you see it fuk up will take longer to dry and will be harder 2 rub down again!!:thumb:

What are the costs of powder coating some wheels ?

[novaboyopr]

my speedlines did the same when i did them white. i think everything eccept powder coating reacts with them.

[Stuart]

powdercoating generally costs about ?50 a wheel...

i ahd paint react on the shell, i thought it looked quite cool lol

[ben doodar]

well today me and my mate spent all day rubbing the reactions down with a black and decker mouse just the last half of 1 wheel to do. they better not react this time
