Default Powder Coating in the GTA

Will be refinishing my wheels, decided to go the powder coating route. Any recommendations in the GTA area?

I have heard good things about Spectrum in Etobicoke but they are not full service. I will also need to have some minor curb rash fixed and I'm looking for a full service, one stop shop if such a thing exists where they can re and re the tires, repair the curb rash, properly prep and then refinish.

Thanks

Ask for John - they repaired 3 BMW wheels from my wife's car - great job, good price and they do powder coating.

messaged them yesterday they got back to me right away. they are full service as you mentioned so I'll be going to check some of their work before pulling the trigger. Price for two tone seemed a little high bit not unreasonable.

I tried Taj, first email I sent didnt get answered. Second email I sent a week later was replied too next day. Follow up email I sent about some specifics and opportunities to view some of his work before finalizing has gone unanswered for 2 weeks. In my opinion, poor customer service usually leads to poor workmanship and or poor post sales support. Taj obviously does not need my business.

Are there any other recommendations from the community? Bueller?

Ditto!

AC did my suspension bits (years ago) but... have you checked with Carcone's in Aurora?

I'll try AC as well, appreciate it, thanks.

Tried Carcone's as well, their quote seemed high to me.
