I read about ceramic wheel coatings and
want to know how many people have done it and the pros
and cons. I just got my Intro's with the raw suede finish
on the spokes and I know it will be tough keeping clean.
It's not a daily driver and those are the rims I like. Budnik
will send your rims out to a company and have them coated
from what I read and then they will clean up easily and the big plus no more polishing. I wish Intro had offered this when I ordered them would of done it in a heartbeat. Thanks

You probably want to talk to Jody Bernard(Camcojob) over at Lateral-g about this first as he has experience in this department but I would think that anyone that does ceramic coating can do this for you.

Intro will do it! All though its not something they really advertise. I have every set of my intro's Clear powdercoated. Makes keeping the so nice as now you just wash like your car, and don't have to polish. Let me know if you need any help and I Can get you in contact with the right guy at intro to have them done

The problem is that I have the wheels at my house in boxes.
I have LOKO PERFORMANCE COATINGS by the house, and
they are real big in the midwest, but said they don't do clear
powdercoating. I should have asked before they made and shipped
them. I will do a search at LATERAL-G.NET to. Thanks

Ceramic coating is NOT to be confused with clear powdercoating. They are two distinctly different finishes. Clear powdercoating will eventually yellow, just like the March pulleys on my engine :hand:
