I have been dealing with John at union rim for almost 9 years and I could say he is a real expert in refinishing all kind of rims
Glad to hear your experience. Not only has his work been phenomenal but genuinely nice guy. Just look at the results 👍
Maybe he is good with rims. Maybe just maybe.
I took a batch of computer case panels for powder coat, and a few of them had holes in them which need patched. There are a NUMBER of ways to go about patching them and **John** proposed to weld them. The guy turned my panels into T-1000 from Terminator 2.
I find it very enjoyable to watch a true professional in their field. “If you don’t have time to do it right the first time, when are you going to have the time to do it right the second time?” -Dad.
Your dad is clearly a smart man 👌
Good video that's the best description to explaining hypersilver finish I've seen yet ,I've been refining hypersilver wheels for over 20 years ,good job.
I’d love to have a guy like John in my shop.. I’m super OCD about small details and it’s hard to find employees that have the same care in mind. Great work John..
We need more John's in this world this man motivates me to be more passionate with my career path! Thanks for the video as well going wheel shopping & came across some ESR wheels & they offer powder coating gonna go for it!
The world needs more John's like this.
Superb.
Agreed!
These rims are an OCD dream
What's an OCD?
Obsessive compulsive disorder
no hacks here at this shop!!
true artist
He's one of the best in the business.
Would not hesitate for a millisecond sending my wheels there (he's done three sets for me).
He really is the best in the business and on top of that he is a great guy!
So impressive !!! never such attention to detail ... we can see this guy like his job and put time and effort for the best result possible. Super nice to see.
Wow superb result.
Keep up the good work and congratulation to Union Rim.
is it possible to know how much cost a job like this ?
Yeah his attention to detail is next to none I'm glad I found someone like him to do the wheels on my R8. well this is a custom job, but I believe a typical powder coating with one or two layers to get a unique finish would be around $800 to $1,200 + tax but every individual would need to get a personalized quote
Amazing video bro! Not only was it satisfying to watch, but you convinced me to go to these guys to do my rims instead of myself. They are so detail oriented! I definitely wouldn't be able to get anywhere close to those results on my own. Thanks for sharing!
I have been dealing with John’s dad for years and they’re absolutely fantastic with what they do!
Wow really, what a small world he did such an amazing job on my rims
Beautiful rims. My favorite color rims. always wondered how they did it. thanks for a professionally done video. I'm painting my rims on my GREY CR-Z.
Thanks Gregory! Actually got another great rim restoration video coming up stay tuned
Can't wait to get these on the R8 😍
You did well... beautiful wheels.
Thanks brother seriously the four stages on this thing took so long and the amount of experience and expertise required to do a job of this quality just blows my mind. Super happy
@@carswithsonduren I admire his work, it's definitely evident that he's passionate about the quality. I'm glad you shared this.
Best part family run shop so this is their treasure
Looks amazing! I’d ship my rims to them for this type of treatment.
Wow ! These guys are legit, definitely taking my wheels and my wife's to them for ours!!
They definitely are legit brother :) super impressed I am personally going to be bringing my fiance's Lexus wheels and getting them refinished as well soon!
Great video!!! John's attention to detail is so hard to find these day's. I'm in the States, but if I were in Canada I'd definitely go to him. 👍
Thanks man yea he is amazing. Make sure you subscribe another video from John coming in 2 weeks :)
These guys are in mississauga Ontario if any one needs
What a rim job!
Thanks for the video....just dropped my 4 bent BMW 550 rims off at Union Rim today to get fixed. Hope to see you at the MotoSocial!
John is going to do wonderful work on your rims Blair! Making plans to hopefully have there May 1st :)
Rims turned out looking like new. Keep up the good work. 👍👍
Thanks Samuel can't wait to show you guys what they look like on the car ✌️👏
Very impressed. Mine need doing and I want it done that way ... additive rather than sanding it all down to the lowest dip. Very nice to see things done professionally.
Thanks man. Glad you like it and welcome to the channel 🙂
Awesome video. Very helpful to understand what's involved.
Dang, if I was closer to Toronto, I'd be running my wheels over there right now! Awesome work!
it looks so nice !! im planning to do that as a hobby, thanks for the tip on aluminium oxide media, used glass before
I have been searching for hours for the best way to achieve this exact color and this video is DEFINITELY it , such amazing work !! I commend you on editing the video to display the craftsmen ship in its full glory will never find a shop in the MIAMI, FL are that can do this same level of work but I’ll ask em to look at this video for reference lol
great job
Excellent work. The final finish looked amazing
Thanks my man !
Now that’s what I wanna learn as a painter ! freakin hard to match that color when people ask me to fix wheels like that
brought my wheels to get powder coated and the place said they sandblasted them and tried to powder coat but it did not stick because of a clear coat that someone had sprayed on my wheels. now they’re saying i need to pay an extra $100 for them to sit in a solution to take off the clear coat. was wondering if they’re trying to get extra money out of me or they messed up and are now trying to scam me to make up for they’re screw up? response would be great thanks!
this is beautiful...
Awesome video dude
Thank you...... 👍👍👍👍👍
How much does something like this cost? I wanting to do this but not if it's about the same price to replace them. Looks really nice. This man knows what he is doing.
This was roughly around $1000 for the full set. You’re absolutely right this man knows exactly what he’s doing he’s a true professional!
بسیار حرفه ای و زیبا
Those dark satin nickle wheels came out totally awesome. That style and color would look so fricken bad to the bone on my totally white 2010 mustang 4.0 absolutely awesome, you guy's do some real high end work 😎👍
Yeah it's some amazing work and welcome to the channel got more videos like this as well 🙂
@@carswithsonduren cool color! please tell me what brand of paint do you use?
Great job
Amazing!
His next video is coming up stay tuned
Just got my rims back from union rims it was like new on a Range Rover 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Amazing to hear :)
Worth the money.
Better to buy quality and do it right the first time 🙏
I work for Oerlikon Balzers and we have 4 coating vessels in our facility we had more but we got rid of two because we don't do those types of coatings anymore. We've done wheels and other random stuff. We also do gun parts, aerospace, car industry, robotics, medical and all types of industries around the world. Never seen a clear PVD coating tho that's cool. You should put some TiN or DLC for the looks but TiN is the cheapest and DLC is the complete opposite 😂 oh BTW a sales guy showed me a new coating coming out that's the most expensive around and it's like motor oil in water in color 😂 sorry best way I can describe it. Funny I was on here looking for things to show my son what I do for a living
What's the ball park cost for such perfection?
Your soul.
😂😂
Hello, what grit sand paper do tou use for grinding alloy wheels after and before you weld it. Thanks!
Before any grit, say 80.
After preferably 180
Military, very military nice 👍 I have an e bike with big ass fat tires this would really bring out the bling on my Boomer Beast Daymak e bike the applications are endless as to what powder coating and proper sanding heating And patients can do :)
Nice. love that color. thanks
Love it on the R8 to match with the side blade
I'm a coater at a local fab shop. We are just getting into wheels and coating stuff for outdoor uses. What type of powder are you using for uv protection?
Whats the name of background music at the end
From where we can buy the liquid Gun Metal Paint which you have been spray down after Powder COATING
how long do you pre bake the wheels and how much powder do you use for each wheel
I want to powder coat wheels for my new Bronco but well the powder coated hold up doing off road use or just get chip up .
It would hold up really well you just need to ensure you go to a proper installer.
what are these liquid paints? what is their name. because I also work in Europe with liquid paints.
Hi!
Is possible to spray wheel whith powder primer after to spray with liquid paint like RM and the third step powder clercoat?
Thank you
Nice and professional video, does anyone know someone in the Houston area that performs this type of work? Thanks
Thanks Jorge welcome to the channel brother
Amazing
Thanks Michael it truly is a masterpiece
what tipe is that to remove paint or its that some spacial granulation ? Its work greate mine one its making 2 much dmg on Rims.
Hi
Could you tell me what kind of post-dark color you used?
Great!
Super Late, but does John still work there?
Yes he does :)
@carswithsonduren Thank you, Appreciate it. :)
Is that a special hyper silver die that could be purchased from any automotive paint supplier
This die can be purchased from any automotive paint supplier!
@@carswithsonduren ok thanks. Will check my local store
I have a 2015 q60s limited and all 4 rims were scratched while I’m switching them from one tire to the other I want to know if I wanna do them at home what should I do especially that my car came out of the dealership with powder coated rims
But I’m talking about doing it at home
Doing this job at home would be very difficult you could try but you will never get these results
I guess I’ll try and let’s see if it works out anyways all I need is just to do it even if it’s shitty work till I get the rim and tire warranty but they were like we need the rim to be done so we could send pictures to the dealership so it would get it
who ever put them tyres on they put them on the wrong way... at @7:56
Is that the sterling silver or the good stuff
i admire the all this process it is like art. but i think is gonna cost more fixing it that buying a set of new wheels :S
I agree if your wheels are not worth more than $600 - $800 for the set.
Where are you located
Nice job. Maybe a stupid question but is the color special paint or just paint with solvents? I asume you baked the last layer not on 200 degrees because the paint is melting or not.
I believe it is just paint with solvents but honestly I'm not a hundred percent sure.
Except I didn’t see any type of primer used on the rims. If you get into the more custom colors hot powder coating can actually change the color of the powder coat, often times making the part darker than the original color if it was shot at room temp and then baked.
unfortunately Toronto is far away from us down in NE CT.
Just make sure whoever you go to is as diligent as John!
Looking to start my own wheel repair and powder coating business and would like some guidance on it. Would john be interested in helping someone else get started and maybe direct somewhat in the business? I'd really love to do the same quality of work as him.
Connect with him, and I’m sure he will help to whatever degree he can.
no doubt about the result and the quality of this job, the question as always, How Much roughly for this kind of job?
About $1000
@@carswithsonduren if its 1000 CAD it is definitely reasonable and worth it
Hundred percent it is and he does such a great job
Is it a health risk to sand blast? With glass beads or what you were using?
Not if done properly like shown
I just finished washing my car and noticed that when the dealership rotated my wheels they damaged each one of them in several spots I think the air wrench grinded against my deep dish factory rim. I have a Challenger Widebody 20x11 OEM rims. Each rim has 4 deep gashes from their tool. I have not spoken with them yet, I do not believe we have a rim place like yours down here in North Carolina. Any suggestions? I would like them replaced but am afraid they are going to hand me a bottle of touch up paint.
Really isn't a rim shop in North Carolina that you can go to? Maybe the dealership know somebody. This is why I hate dealerships they don't care for your property once they have sold it to you. Document everything and make sure you go there and get a resolution. Best of luck friend but don't give up if they try to push you around
At 7:17 you are using an apparatus to move the wheels. Can you please let me know where I can find that tool or give some advise how to make one myself?
I am not sure myself but I will ask him
@@carswithsonduren Thank you very much.
Please what's the ral no of this black
Need some advice if possible. I have just had my wheels powered coated (obviously not from you) and the face edge of the wheel, the paint as come off. I picked the car up 6 days ago and only driven it twice. Not kerbed them or driven down any pot holes.
Is there a way I could send you a photo?
Many thanks
Hey Will! Can you take it back to where you got the work done?
@@carswithsonduren hopefully, I am in talks with them at the moment. I would of thought powder coating would be durable compared to other methods!
It is as durable as it can get but all of that requires proper prep work. If the prep work was insufficient this can happen
Did he powdercoat and spray basecoat over it? The one gun looked like a regular spray gun.
Yes sir. Special paint used on wheels for powder coating temperatures.
Can I still powder coat my rims if they are plastidipped? As in like y’all would be able to remove the plastidip and still powder coat them black? Or they won’t worry anymore since they got plastdipped 😔?
I took my plasti dip wheels in they will take it off befor they paint at no cost extra
Where is this place located? Looks amazing...
Toronto Ontario
How much does it cost?
about how long did the whole process take ??
Couple days
How much does it cost
About $800 to $1000 for a set.
if i powder cost my rims do i get them ceramic coated still?
Yes you can
What's the color code?
Mind if I ask the cost for that?
800-1000 for all 4 wheels
I took a batch of computer case panels for powder coat, and a few of them had holes in them which need patched. There are a NUMBER of ways to go about patching them and **John** proposed to weld them. The guy turned my panels into T-1000 from Terminator 2.
Moral of the story, don't ask anyone to weld unique/irreplaceable parts until that person has demonstrated to you that they can actually do it.
Cost?
do they guarantee their work .. that rims will be perfect or no charge/money back?
Not sure, mine came out perfect I would talk to them
wats ur number boss
u do class too love to do some classes
how much does this cost
About $1,000
What was the cost?
This was a custom job but expect something like $1000 for this plus or minus based on exact spec
@@carswithsonduren Ty
Hi, If somebody wish to start this kind of business, what kind of equipment and knowledge is required.
All that and then the dick heads at the dealerships smash your wheels onto the balance machine, remove the old weights with a screw driver, impact guns and then you’re back to where you started. Thanks to the ‘technicians’ making $10 per hour.
Why you shouting powder primer on hot wheels , you have a Gema with supercorona
Holy shit that's a lot of balancing weights on those rims.
Great job - shame the wheels themselves are not that nice.
Thanks 👍
Ain't no body got time for that
I do :-)
👍😑✌️
Where are they located ?
Toronto
Toronto Canada or Toronto Ohio!?
Toronto Canada :)
all that work for a set of Avid wheels bruh.
work Looks crazy expensive, im sure its cheaper to buy new ones
Definitely not cheaper to buy new ones those rims alone are $8,000
@@carswithsonduren looked like about 8k worth of work to me
@@mikeyy425 lol I know rite! I'm still waiting to see a comment on how much it cost to have such work done I have a newer Super Sport Impala I wanted to do the same color
Weird
Nothing impressive, I can do the exact same by just using vht wheel paint 😆
Hahahaha I wish ;p
