Getting rims powder coated

A local place in Abilene Tx wanted $150 each to strip and powdercoat my 15x7 steelies. I didnt want to sandblast them myself even though I have access to a sandblast cabinet at work. Just being lazy i guess. Well that price perked me up. I told them no thank you, and just went thru the trouble of blasting 1 wheel per lunch hour per day. Took em home, primed and painted them myself. I think they werent interested in my business. $600 total, I could have bought nice mag wheels for half that price. They may not want your business. Rims are a pain in the *** from what I understand about powder coating.
