Are your wheels looking tired and in need of some TLC?\u00a0Painting is an option but for a longer lasting and smoother finish you should consider Powder Coating writes Suzanne Keane<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Powder Coating is applied as a dry powder and then cured under heat to form a thick skin. It’s used to create a hard finish that is tougher than paint.<\/p>\n

When it comes to powdercoating in Ireland Tallaght Powdercoating<\/a>, is the first name that comes to mind.<\/p>\n

So with\u00a0two sets of wheels in need of some love – my “everyday” wheels had lost their lustre so I sent them to Tallaght Powdercoating for an anthracite finish – an ideal colour if you don’t want to be cleaning your wheels too often as it hides dirt and brake dust very well!!<\/p>\n

I’d also bought a 17″ set of OZ Volcanos from a Soho hairdresser back in 2009 that at the time were immaculate but after 6 years on Irish roads were covered in stone chips and badly kerbed. I asked for them to be finished in bronze\/anthracite but after Jeff at TPC heard what car they were for recommended I try smoked chrome instead – always good to listen to the experts on these occasions!!<\/p>\n

After 3 days the car was ready for collection with both sets of wheels looking better than new! Watch the video below to see exactly what was involved.<\/p>\n
