I'm toying with the idea on having the spokes and inner 'rim' of my wheels painted or powder coated in an anthricite grey and then have the outer rims polished - does anyone know if it's possible to polish my marchesini's (s2r ones)

Also does anyone know where could perform this task to a really good standard around milton keynes/beds/bucks area?


Thanks All

Pristine Wheels in Woburn Sands did all my Subaru wheels - give them a buzz.

Theres a guy over Flitwick way thats apparently really good. I'll get the number for you tomorrow as I want my entire bike and wheels painted. My neighbour had his Fazer 1000 body and wheels done by him and theyre really good.

Hi Markus,

The painter I spoke to isnt sure on polishing mag wheels so hes going to find out for definate from Ducati.

Heres the prices:

Powder Coating: £80 per wheel
Painting: £40 per wheel

Obviously thats for the just straight painting the wheel and no polishing.

Give him a call to discuss your needs further. He's based in Ampthill and he will be painting my M600 including the wheels soon.

His names Shaun, and hes on 07707 323939, Addy: Unit 5, Vass Industrial Estate, Station Road, Ampthill
