You have a special oven for wheels?

Look pretty good. Get a photobucket account and upload the pics there. They will be bigger and easier to post here.

No special oven, just do them in my shop oven.

No, I don't have before pics, I need to start doing that!
I will check with the customer and see if they have any.

Is a bad kind of man, like that Jodie Foster
is it a low-cure coating?

If you mean low temp cure, no it isn't.

You do know that will weaken the aluminum right?

I do know that has been hashed out over and over and that the amount of time that the wheels are in the cure oven has very little effect on the aluminium.
Aging has more effect than curing, some types of aluminiums actually harden with the cure.
But thanks for the post.

400* at 15-20 minutes won't harm the aluminum. Too many people are worried about it and I havn't heard or seen destruction due to coating yet.....

Try this link or I personally know someone about 2 hours from you in Saint Cloud I believe is were he is. Does great work.

Joe,
The cure on this color is 400 @ 10 minutes PMT. At 400 degrees Alcoa charts that this type of alloy can bake for 30 minutes, so your are correct in saying it won't harm the aluminium.

Wheels look nice!
I need to start taking advantage of powder coating so close.
Will 19" Axis NE-O's fit in your oven? :laugh:
(waiting for the AXIS Nazi's to come in :laugh
