powder coat reconditioning Process
Thorough Inspection
Each incoming wheel is thoroughly inspected for cracks, rust-through, or other damage that may make the wheel unserviceable. Wheels found unfit for service are removed from the process.
Cleaning
Each wheel is thoroughly cleaned using our proprietary cleaning process, then re-inspected.
Zinc Coating
A zinc coating is applied to the entire surface area of the wheel. The zinc acts as a metal preservative which slows, or even stops, the rusting process.
Powder Coating
Each wheel is powder-coat painted by hand to ensure complete coverage.
Curing
Painted wheels undergo a curing process to harden the finish.
Final Inspection
Every finished wheel is subjected to a final inspection to guarantee a like-new appearance.
Aluminum Wheels
Best-One Kentuckiana can also refinish your aluminum wheels. We finish aluminum wheels by hand to eliminate the warping that can result from machine buffing. Warped wheels can cause an improper fit to hub or tire, either of which can be catastrophic. Our expert finishers will bring back the original shine of your wheels, without sacrificing your safety.
