Can You Paint Finish Wheels In Bad Winter Weather?

Excellent question!

If you’re wanting to get your gorgeous new ride all decked out with a fancy new wheel finish, chances are you don’t want to wait until the weather is better. You want that Satin Black finish now, if not sooner!

But if your vehicle is parked outside, or the painting and refinishing work will be done outside, will the finish look and perform as well as it would in better weather? If it’s pouring with rain, actively snowing, groppling or sleeting, can you still expect a paint job of as high a standard as if the weather were good?

The answer is, quite simply, yes!

Although your vehicle may be parked outside, when we remove the wheel to sand it down, prime, paint, and seal it, we take it inside our custom mobile shop. Your wheel will be painted and finished to the same high standard we always provide, regardless of the weather.

Since the industrial-strength paints and finishing agents we work with are not water-based, they are unaffected by outside humidity, whether they are in direct contact with it or not.

Your wheels’ paint and refinish work could be performed just as effectively outside in the elements as it can inside our mobile repair shop. However, the shelter provided by our mobile repair shop allows us to see everything more clearly while we work. The mobile shop in this instance is really more for us than your wheel!

If you’ve got a hankering to get your wheels all gussied up, give the experts at Salt City Wheels a call today at 801 425 3044. We’ll have your wheels impressing the winter boots off your neighborhood in no time, whatever the weather!
