lmfao

 

because you said that was the dumbest **** ever. Unless u powdercoat chrome its not going to come out looking shiney like chrome. So if you chrome the rims first, then powdercoat it a copper color, its going to come out looking like a shiney new penny, with 0 upkeep because its powdercoated, how is that the dumbest **** ever????

 

 

Because you can just get it copper dipped then throw a clear powdercoat over it = real copper and its protected

 

1- The copper would tarnish in seconds in the 400 degree oven before the powdercoat even set
2- Have you seen the price of copper, might as well gold plate them
What else you guys got???

 

 

why cant i just have them clear coat them after they are dipped why is it powder coar all of a sudden

 

Price how much its going to be, then get back to us

 

I can't believe this is even being discussed, hahaha!

 

That's really great!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

1. I seriously doubt you know what you're talking about here. Copper tarnishes due to humidity, not heat. The powder would seal the copper. You're in the clear here.

2. EVERYTHING that is chromed first gets copper plated. Are you just dumb? Go be a big kid and google the chroming process. What a retarded thing to say.


OP, you have 3 legitimate options to accomplish this look.
1. Copper plating and lots of elbow grease. Just polish them all the time. Guys with polished magnesium wheels do, and that stuff corrodes even faster than copper tarnishes.

2.Clear coating with paint.

3. Powder coating with clear.

It can obviously be done, I took these pictures at WekFest this year:
