What is wheel powder coating?
Powder coating is a state-of-the-art technique that gives the wheels on your car a beautiful, long-
lasting shine while also protecting them. In contrast to conventional paint, powder coating forms a
durable layer by heating a dry powder that has been applied electrostatically.

Car Cafe 6 Step Rim Powder Coating Process
Preparation
We start by removing rust, scale, and old paint, cleaning the rims down to the base metal. Each rim is inspected for cracks, bends, and worn bolt holes to ensure safety and quality.
Step 01
Primer
A primer coat is applied to add an extra layer of protection against rust before the color coat is added, ensuring longevity and adherence.
Step 02
Powder Coating
The color coat is applied using a charged powder coating system. We ensure uniform coats to prevent runs and achieve a flawless finish. Available in standard colors like White, Grey, Black, Silver, Red, Orange, Yellow, and Blue, with a variety of other colors also available.
Step 03
Tire Installation
Once cooled, tires are installed and balanced, ensuring your vehicle is ready to hit the road with a fresh, new look.
Step 06
Curing Process
The rims are baked in a curing oven, which ensures the paint adhesion is strong and the durability is maximized.
Step 05
Clear Coat
After color application, rims air dry and are then clear coated with a durable powder coat. This step provides further protection and rust prevention, enhancing the finish's durability.
