Cup wheels - centre cap question

[ashtons99]

I'm looking at getting a set of 182 cup alloys (anthracite) refurbed. There are a few marks on the centre caps, what's the best option, obviously I'm guessing spraying them, is there a common paint code anyone is aware of.

I've done a bit of a search before posting but can't find anything

When I got my 182 wheels refrbed they also did the centre caps for me.

And then they all match properly

Can they do that as part of the powder coating then as obviously the centres are plastic

I'm not expert but I'm sure a good wheel refurb company will have come across plastic centre caps before and have a way of making them match the wheels they have just coated.

Best off asking the company who are doing it for you

Mine weren't powder coated but looked as good as new after the refurb

Unfortunately not. You will have do to wet spray the wheels and caps to get a perfect match.

I use to favour powder coating but after a few chipping and large flaking I now spray and bake all my wheels.

I'm thinking of going down the wet paint route for a change with these. I will have a chat with you about it Paul
