Powder coating wheels gold

[newbus]

Was thinking of getting black wheels powder coated Gold.
Anyone done this. My question is do i need any special tools for removing the wheel bearing.And is it a easy job to remove and replace them.

Any help would be appreciated

Search for two blue/black on here or craigslist. I am sure someone would be willing to swap for even money.

I have done that to a few sets. Yes go ahead and order new grease seals before you start,

Next, get a peice of all thread rod with big washers and nuts, this will be used to draw in the bearings when your done with the PC job.

Harbor freight sells the ( Blind Bearing ) removal tool that will work instead of the 300+ dollar suzuki tool. (expandable collet) type remover is what its refered to also.

Strip the wheels yourself, to save some $, but do not sand blast them.
