*powdercoat...

it's an actual powdered paint... when baked, it turns into that shiney glaze we all know and love.

Nope, not sure why you'd want to powdercoat though... basecoat clearcoat is the best route... sooo easy to keep clean, and so durable! Clearcoats are tough, so thats the way to do it.

Just use sticky weights... wheel weights are what kills clearcoats on wheels. I guess if you want a dull black... powdercoat might be best... but who knows

Wheel shops re-finish wheels (fix light damage [ie: curb rash] AND paint) for $100~ a wheel.
