Wheel refurb and general powder coating.
After the unfortunate demise of Dymag there now appears to be a hole in the market for specialist wheel refurbishment.
So after 27 years of working for Dymag my brother has decided to go it alone. It's still very early days and will hopefully prove successful, i am in the process of trying to get some discount for org members if they needed any work doing but nothing has come to fruition yet. Heres the website >>LINKY<< Many thanks for looking. Cuffy |

Re: Wheel refurb and general powder coating.
Does he straighten too?
Maybe a .org discount would drum up some business. Also he might want to change that font on the front page italics are awful to read when you use a lot of them. Last edited by Grinch; 23-03-10 at 12:35 PM. |

Re: Wheel refurb and general powder coating.
I'm not sure to tell you the truth Chris, this is why he's aiming for the specialist side of it first, ie: magnesium. He has alot of contacts within the trade still so can still get cush drives, sprockets and bearings.
Grinch: He hasn't the facility to straigten wheels at the moment, don't know if it's something he would get into. If you need anything like that doing he does know alot of firms that could help you out. |
