Default Refinishing of alloys

The winter wheels for the V60 probably need a complete strip down and recoating in clear lacquer. They are powder coated at the moment and this is coming off in sheets. The corrosion on the bead has already caused 2 of them to go flat and required resealing.

So 2 questions:-

1. How much am I likely to pay for them to be shot blasted and recoated. Tyres refitted and rebalanced etc..
2. Can anyone recommend anyone good to do this in the North Derbyshire/South Yorks/North Lincs area?

Thanks

Standard finish. Would prefer just plain aluminium colour and lacquer rather than powder coating I think.

Give Dave a ring at Alloy-D, he is at staveley . Just had my Discovery 20" alloys completely refurbed and he charged me 50 per wheel. Great job and he completely strips wheel and refurbs not just a quick spray over

Thanks. Staveley is pretty convenient for me, so I will give him a ring. Thanks.
