Can you polish powder coating?
« on: August 04, 2015, 10:59:22 am »
As the title asks, is it possible to polish powder coatings? I'm about to have my wheels refurbished and the place is going to powdercoat the wheels and I'm worried it will go dull.

Sweet! Did you use any fancy polish or compoud, or just the regular stuff you use for the paint work?
