Wheel refurbishment - Ashton Powder Coating

Having bought a set of Rays off another forum member, the wheels were a bit 'tired' so tidied up the kerb damage and marks, and took them to Ashton Powder Coating for a new coat -

They were very reasonable (£40 for shotblast, powder coat, and lacquer if they were just wheels - £50 if they have to take the tyres off) and the choice of colours is great -

I opted for the graphite grey with a metallic flake 'sparkle' . . . . I came so close to Candy Red but I'm afraid I bottled it and went for more a conventional colour!

 

I had spent a Saturday morning cleaning the wheels before taking them, though the guy said I hadn't needed to bother as his shotblast takes everything off.

I guess the only other thing is - can anyone photoshop me in some hair, please . . . . .
