Hello
just got some wheels powdercoated gloss black and the finish isnt what i wanted i can see bits of orange peel in places and slight bubbles so im gonna get them done again properly so whats the best things to do for a good finish?

Shotblasting/sandblasting?
powdercoat
laquer/or some sort of clear coat for the shine?

Any info on these i just want a good finish

If it's done by people who know what they're doing and are good at their job then the finish should be pretty much perfect, no matter what method it is. They do everything that is needed to get them back to brand new condition. Or should do.
