Chrome color Powder Coat

Anyone had powder coat done in a chrome color? Thinking about having the aluminum wheels on my truck chrome coated.

You may want to just look at CLEAR powder coating.

I swore I'd never own another polished wheel in my life....but got a great crackhead deal on some Bullits. Had a local shop try the clear powder coating and loved it.

I had another set of wheels built from Forgeline and had them clear coated at when they built them. Same results.

In my opinion the only way to keep polished wheels looking good and not cleaning once a month is to clear powder coat.

I had something powder coated "chrome". It wasn't chrome at all. I talked to multiple powder coaters that wouldn't do it bc of the poor results they had themselves trying "chrome" powder coat.

Don't waste your time or money.

Already made the decision to send all parts to the chromer instead, thanks for the input guys.
